Take Control, Learn, Connect is a new programme of weekend workshops for people recently diagnosed with HIV. We know that being diagnosed with HIV can be a worrying and confusing time, and so these workshops have been set up to:
The free workshops will be delivered by staff and volunteer peer mentors from Positively UK who will share their experiences of being diagnosed and living with HIV. Each workshop will be self-contained, taking place over the course of one weekend. By the end of the workshop you’ll have been given the information to start taking control of your HIV; learnt how to get the support you need; and connected with other people living with HIV.

“I’m still amazed by how much my perspective on my diagnosis and future has changed after this weekend. I feel so invigorated.”
“It took me some time to be in a group with people ‘like me’, but after learning from others and sharing I feel much stronger, inspired and looking forward to the future.”
“Before I attended the Recently Diagnosed weekend, I was someone who would suffer in silence. Positively UK has empowered me to take charge of my life. I know what service and treatment I should expect and am really engaging with my health care team.”
