A local story from a local hero.
Zippy, an African woman, has found comfort with a peer support group with other women living with HIV after initially being worried about being recognised by members of her community. The group helped her challenge feelings of being ‘sickly’ and, particularly after meeting Di who has lived with HIV for 40 years, she has hope. The multicultural nature of the group has helped reduce her social isolation and provides a safe space to speak openly about her health and future.
The National Day of Women Living with HIV is this Monday 9 March.
