The Terrence Higgins Trust was established in 1982, as Terry Higgins was one of
the first people in the UK to die with AIDS. A group of his friends wanted to
prevent more people having to face the same illness as Terry and named the Trust
after him, hoping to personalise and humanise AIDS in a very public way. Our
objectives are to reduce the spread of HIV and promote good sexual health. To
provide services which improve the health and quality of life of those affected.
To campaign for greater public understanding.
