The elephant in the room
We are The Eddystone Trust and we believe that the topic of "sex" doesn't have to be the elephant in the room. It's our view that experiencing positive sexual health should be a right for everyone, including you.
The landscape of sexual health is evolving, and quiet revolutions have been taking place; STIs are treatable, and living with HIV now means just that - living a long and healthy life. However, not everyone has heard, stigma and shame can still get in the way, stopping people from getting tested and claiming their right to positive sexual health.
That’s why we’re on a mission to fight stigma, and you can help us in this fight by making a donation (however small) to help fund the work we do. Your donation will help to make sure that HIV support, prevention and STI testing are there for when people need it the most. Together, let’s make a positive change.
