HIV and the beauty sector - challenging HIV stigma

Access to hair, beauty and barbering is everyone's right. 

 

George House Trust is excited to launch a new awareness raising campaign that aims to tackle HIV stigma and discrimination in the hair, beauty and barbering sector. 

 

During August 2023 we conducted a survey about peoples’ experiences and received over 400 responses from across the UK. This was followed by focus groups with people who access our services and a round-table discussion with people living with HIV, and industry body representatives.

 

Based on our findings, we're launching a new campaign on social media that aims to challenge the industry wide stigma and discrimination.

 

You can find out more about our research and the campaign here.
