We run over a dozen services in the Grampian area from our centre in Aberdeen and from THT Direct.

HIV Support Services

Community Support is an integral part of the work in the Grampian centre. The community support volunteers help to support people living with HIV in the region.

Positive Mixture is a group for HIV positive people of all ages, genders and backgrounds, they meet up fortnightly to discuss issues and socialise with other positive people in the Grampian Region.
