My Life With HIV
Imagine, having your life changing moment - but this one feels like your worst nightmare. The shock, the disbelief, the sadness, the grief, the fear of the unknown. Now imagine having to go to work the following day, function, focus, smile, pretend everything is ok but most importantly keep quiet!
In this incredibly human session, your speaker Russell uses from-the-heart storytelling to share his experience of receiving his HIV diagnosis and the pressures he faced during that time.
He is incredibly knowledgeable about HIV and also uses the session to bust many myths, educate and set the record straight on some common misconceptions about HIV and AIDS, in the hope that we can make the world a more positive and inclusive place for the 82 thousand people in the UK living with HIV.
