DHIVERSE, the HIV and Sexual Health charity, works across Cambridgeshire and surrounding areas in the East of England. DHIVERSE was one of the first HIV organisations to be set up in the UK, having been founded by a group of friends as a telephone helpline in 1986. Since then DHIVERSE has grown and developed to include health promotion, support, advocacy and campaigning, to name but a few of the things that we do. For more about DHIVERSE click here.
DHIVERSE has recently been successful in securing funding to support the development of services for young people. National Youth volunteering charity V will give DHIVERSE £184,800 volunteering opportunities for 16-25 year olds. DHIVERSE will be working with Centre 333, CUSU and SexYOUality to deliver the project. DHIVERSE was also a winner in the Talk Talk innovation awards and will receive free broadband and £2,000 to increase youth access to information through the web.

In the UK, newly diagnosed cases of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have increased rapidly over the past five years. The Eastern region now has one of the highest rates of new diagnoses outside London. About a third of the 70,000 people currently living with HIV in the UK are still unaware they are infected. This increase has been seen amongst women, heterosexual men and gay men.
Worldwide more than 40 million people are living with HIV. That means that approximately 1 in every 150 people has HIV. For more on HIV in the UK and overseas click here.
