I’m running 10k as part of World AIDS Day RED RUN 2024 to help fundraise for Spectra!
Over the last six months I have been joining in and enjoying Spectra’s ‘trans-and-non-binary meet-up groups’ in London - having a safe-space, good chat and making new friends has been amazing. These sessions and their other services are so valuable to all of us in the community :)
Gift if you can (no worries if not), or join after for a beer if you can!
Spectra is a not-for-profit that delivers supportive, knowledgeable, non-judgemental peer-based services to under-served and socially excluded communities, including LGBTQ+, sex workers, young people and people from minority backgrounds.
Spectra started life in 1996 as the West London Gay Men's Project, set up to prevent HIV transmission in local high risk populations by delivering services in the community as well as contributing to the evidence-based research of the period.
Though HIV support and outreach, including free testing, remain one of their core services, Spectra has since broadened who they work with and the types of issues they support. They exist to support people of all sexualities, gender identities, cultural influences and ethnicities who want to make positive changes to their lives.
Donate now to help Spectra continue to deliver their vital services!
