For the last fifteen years the Beacon has been providing vital services for people with HIV who stay in our residential unit or use our community services. Until the day comes when a cure is found for HIV or a vaccine can help prevent it occurring, then the Beacon has a job to do.  Their clients needs vary from residential care, to recovery from a hospital stay, terminal care or adaptation to medication. The challenges facing people with HIV are enormous - they help with all of this and so very much more.  The Beacon saves lives, and without their services, many people may have died or will die in the future. The half marathon helps fund this service and over the last eight years has raised nearly £500,000
