We have all heard about fashion models who have demands and expectations of diva-like proportions. So it’s positively refreshing to learn about a group of models who are offering their time and energy for free to
sensitise the public about HIV.

In this issue we meet the ‘Red Ribbon’ models who are part of Positive Runway: the Global Catwalk to Stop the Spread®. Their high profile campaign has enormous potential in this celebrity-driven era and could make significant gains in the efforts to halt the spread of the epidemic.

Helen Tate from St George’s Hospital gives useful tips on how people living with HIV can manage their weight.
