Terrence Higgins Trust was set up in 1982 following the death of its namesake, Terry Higgins, the first named person to die of an AIDS-related illness in the UK. As an organisation we are working toward ambition goals: (1) to end the onward transmission of HIV in the UK by 2030; (2) provide support for people living with HIV; and (3) fight HIV-related stigma.

EDI Directorate

At Terrence Higgins Trust we know that equity, diversity and inclusion are critical to the work we do. We are striving to be an anti-racist, anti-sexist organisation and are committed to having a workforce with people from different backgrounds. It is the responsibility of each one of us in the Charity to create an environment of inclusion and belonging within the organisation. Our work has to be internal first so that it can impact on all that we do for all the communities who use our services.

An ambitious organisation

Since 1982, we’ve acted boldly and passionately to meet the challenges of this ever-changing epidemic .We are working to end HIV transmission in the UK by 2030, support people to live with HIV and fight HIV-related stigma. It’s a critical moment – for the first time our goals are within reach. We are working together with our beneficiaries and partners to make the end of HIV transmission a reality.

A collaborative organisation

As the UK’s leading HIV charity, we are looking to take new, innovative steps to drive forward our ambition but we can achieve none of our goals alone. We do this through a strong team approach internally and working with partners externally. This might be others in the HIV or sexual health space, or organisations with very different expertise, cultural competencies or reach.

A people organisation

Terrence Higgins Trust is its people – our service users are central to our organisation and the services we provide are informed by their lives, voice and experience. Our talented staff create innovative and engaging programmes, many of whom are also living with HIV. We know that equity, diversity and inclusion are critical to the work we do. We are striving to be an anti-racist, anti-sexist, more inclusive organisation and are committed to having a workforce with people from different backgrounds.
