Our Story
The World AIDS Day RED RUN has become a pivotal event in the journey towards a world where everyone living with HIV can thrive. Since 2009, this incredible movement has grown from a small gathering of 50 people to one of the UK’s biggest annual HIV community events, raising over £1.1 million for crucial support and prevention projects.
What makes the RED RUN unique? It’s a space for unity. HIV charities, people living with HIV, and the community come together to raise awareness and vital funds. All HIV charities are welcome to participate and benefit from this powerful event, the only of its kind.
We’ve made significant strides. New diagnoses are down dramatically, and London and the UK have surpassed the UNAIDS 90:90:90 target. However, the journey continues. 106,000 people in the UK are living with HIV, and stigma remains a barrier to care. Funding cuts threaten essential services.
That’s why the RED RUN is more important than ever. It’s a celebration of progress, a call for continued support, and a platform for raising awareness. Join us and be part of the solution!
Take Action. Lace Up. Let’s keep moving forward, together.
