About us
Who we are
We’re the UK’s HIV rights charity. We work to stop HIV from standing in the way of health, dignity and equality, and to end new HIV transmissions. Our expertise, research and advocacy secure lasting change to the lives of people living with and at risk of HIV.
Our vision
Our vision is a world where HIV does not stand in the way of health, dignity and equality.
Our purpose
Our purpose is to stand alongside and defend the rights of everyone living with, affected by or at risk of HIV.
Our expertise, research and advocacy secure lasting change to the lives of people living with and at risk of HIV.
And we won’t stop until everyone affected by HIV can live their fullest life possible.
Our strategic aims to 2025
- STOP: we will stop new HIV infections
- CHAMPION: we will champion the needs of people whose voices and experiences are too often ignored
- PROTECT: we will protect the rights of everyone living with and at risk of HIV
- DRIVE: we will drive engagement and activism to change attitudes to HIV.
Our culture and values
We seek to embody our values in everything we do – including how we approach our work, how we treat our staff, and how we work with others:
• We believe passionately in equality and human rights, so this is at the centre of everything we do.
• We are brave. We speak out and are never afraid to challenge the status quo.
• We are persistent. We persevere until we create change, however long it takes.
• We are collaborative. We work to build relationships of mutual trust and respect because we know we can’t do this alone.
• We are honest. Our integrity and credibility are crucial, so we protect them by being independent, transparent and accountable.
Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
National AIDS Trust is committed to becoming a diverse and inclusive organisation. We strive to create a workplace that represents our mission and the people we serve, and where all voices are valued and heard.
To reflect this, we actively encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, physical ability, disability or religion. As the UK’s HIV rights charity, we particularly encourage applications from those with an understanding of the issues faced by people living with HIV.
At National AIDS Trust, we would like our application process to be as accessible as possible. Please speak to us about any reasonable adjustments that you might require throughout the interview process or the role.
