YTD Raised: £55.00
(UK, 1113204) STOPAIDS is the network of UK agencies working since 1986 to secure an effective global response to HIV and AIDS. With 80 members behind us, we raise a united voice to rally and maintain the UK’s leadership in the global response to HIV. Together with people living with HIV, we fight for a global response that respects, protects and fulfils human rights. We give decision-makers the proof – and the push – they need to make the right, smart choices to help improve the lives of the millions of people around the world needing HIV treatment, prevention, care and support. We are striving for a world in which peoples’ human rights are respected. Discrimination that prevents certain groups of people from accessing services is stopped and the rights of people living with HIV and AIDS are fully respected. 16 million people that are in need of treatment around the world still aren’t getting it. And just at this moment our leaders are backing away from the promise to deliver HIV prevention, treatment, care and support to all. We still need to fight to Stop AIDS. Please lend us your vital support.

Everything Ellie

She wanted them to enjoy and make memories that will last a life time, as she did with her family, to bring a bit of sunshine at an otherwise gloomy time. Ellie was 16 years old when she lost her battle to leukaemia in March 2015; Ellie had always lived in North Devon and enjoyed spending time with her family and enjoying everything North Devon had to offer Faced with the knowledge that her life would be cut short, Ellie expressed a wish to have a ‘Landmark’ in her name. In light of this we have started ‘Everything Ellie’ which currently consists of a rented Beach Hut at Saunton Sands, for which we have secured funds for 2 years. Since July 2015 5 families have enjoyed the beach hut . One family told us: “we had the most wonderful day at the Everything Ellie Beach hut today, thank you so much. The kids loved sliding down the dunes. We felt we were a million miles from home and when I was putting the boys to bed my son said “we have had such a brilliant day today haven’t we” Our long term goal is to buy or build a chalet or woodland lodge in the local area to offer respite holidays for families’ under-going treatment in our geographical area.

Assisting the vulnerable and marginalised in the Midlands and London facing social injustice and inequality. We'd like our support to be as emotional as it is financial, hence our mission statement: Knowing that someone is fighting your corner Is half the battle won.
