Organised by The Food ChainThis global day of remembrance and action is an opportunity to honour those we have lost, to fight against stigma and to fight for the right of every person living with HIV to have the good quality of life they deserve.
The Food Chain exists to ensure people living with HIV in London can access the nutrition they need to get well, stay well and lead healthy, independent lives.
People living with HIV often struggle to access the food they need to stay well, because of ill health, poverty, isolation, a lack of motivation to eat well, or limited skills or knowledge.
Every service user is referred by a health or social care professional who has identified them in need of nutritional support. Each service user receives a Personalised Nutrition Care Plan designed specifically to meet their needs. By offering a tailored package of support, at the appropriate time, we help people to lead healthy, independent lives.
We deliver meals and groceries, offer cookery and nutrition classes and communal eating opportunities to people living with HIV in London and their dependents.
“Everything that was promised was delivered - the food, the advice, and the help contacting my clinic. I'm eating and drinking well thanks to you and I feel so much better for it. I was in a very dark place mentally and didn't think this was possible. I'm feeling on top of things... I'm now taking my medications every day.”
Charities pay a small fee for our service. Learn more about fees
