‘TOWARDS ZERO HIV’ – Martin Fisher Foundation to march at Brighton Pride

Have you always wanted to march on the Brighton Pride parade, but never had the opportunity?

Here is your opportunity. Join the Martin Fisher Foundation (MFF) on the Pride Parade on August 6 and march with conviction TOWARDS ZERO HIV.

MFF are looking for volunteers to walk on the Pride Parade wearing their ‘TOWARDS ZERO HIV’ T-shirts, which show ways everyone can help to make Brighton and Hove the first UK city to have zero new HIV infections.

For more details and to register, email: bittistephen@gmail.com the MFF volunteers coordinator:

When the parade is finished, look out for MFF on the Sexual Health and Contraception Service (SHAC) stall in the Community Village at Preston Park.

MFF has been set up in Brighton & Hove to take forward the work of Professor Martin Fisher who died last year. The Foundation’s work will continue Martin’s ethos of treating people living with HIV with dignity, compassion and respect and will focus on the development of new strategies for effective HIV prevention, treatment and care.

The MFF’s vision is to accelerate TOWARDS ZERO HIV stigma, ZERO new HIV infection and ZERO deaths from HIV in Brighton & Hove and it is currently working with stakeholders to develop a Towards Zero strategy and implementation plan that will set out ways in which everyone can contribute to this important aspirational goal.
