	BBC NEWS \| Talking Point \| Fighting Aids: Ask the campaigners
		Terence Higgins was the first known case in the UK as someone dying of Aids and since then the Terrence Higgins Trust has been working closely with populations largely at risk of HIV in the UK and also working abroad in bringing attention and raising awareness of HIV/Aids.
		The Trust, for example, has been working very closely with all sections of society to ensure that the HIV message is out there and preventative messages are out there.
		The Trust actually has been working with now what has become the highest at risk group - the African communities here in the UK and the message to 16 to 24 year-olds is going out there.

	UK Fears Over New HIV Strain
		Prisoners in the United Kingdom who do not receive the proper medication in a timely fashion could cause a new, drug- resistant strain of HIV to evolve, according to the Terence Higgins Trust.
		Terence Higgins Trust Director of Operations Andrew Ridley cautioned that combination therapies must be followed rigorously or the HIV strain the patient is infected with will become resistant to the drugs.

	Terence Higgins Trust - Review - "21 million already dead"

		Charging for treatment (effectively making it inaccessible to most people) is unlikely to encourage people refused asylum to return to countries they have been determined to leave, many of which have even less health infrastructure and support than they would receive on emergency grounds in the UK.
		THT has long campaigned against these restrictions, but we think it is important to revive this campaign now.
		Several of the original perpetrators of the US legislation have retired from office and the US is eager to rebuild tourism in the wake of September 11th.

	BBC News \| UK \| Fears over new HIV strain
		The Terence Higgins Trust is warning that a new drug-resistant strain of HIV - the virus that causes Aids - may develop in the UK if infected prisoners do not get the right medication at the right time.
		The trust is concerned that no national guidelines exist for the treatment of HIV-positive and Aids patients in jail, and that strict prison regimes often prevent effective treatment.
		Andrew Ridley, director of operations of the Terence Higgins Trust, said it was extremely important that patients receiving combination therapy should continue to have access to it when in prison.

	House of Commons - Health - Minutes of Evidence
		I think Nick provided a very eloquent list and a compelling testimony of the sorts of things that are required in respect of sex education and the targeting of educational efforts with a view to preventing HIV towards at risk communities.
		On the issue of section 28, to my mind a false impression is given of the real issues in the media, particularly the Terence Higgins Trust and the National AIDS Trust.
		The long, ongoing story line with Mark Fowler in Eastenders is something the Terrence Higgins Trust have been consulted on and sadly that is going to come to an end soon but that has had an educative impact reaching an audience that we at the Terrence Higgins Trust would otherwise find very difficult to do.

		However, within the Terence Higgins Trust document it clearly states that 71%* of heterosexually acquired infections were people from Africa, or exposed to risk from that area.
		The National Aids Trust estimates this figure to be 80% of new diagnosis rates.
		Between 1995 and 2000, the number of new diagnosis among Black Africans rose by a factor of 4.4 (for every one case in 1995, there were about four and a half in 2000, and it is expected that late notifications will increase the 2000 figure).

	House of Commons - Health - Minutes of Evidence
		When Nick Partridge of Terence Higgins Trust was before us, he was talking about the monitoring of performance and the Service and Financial Frameworks and he made the point that sexual health is not on the list of "must-dos" in the SAFs.
		That is what is going to happen locally and there is a huge tension between the ever-increasing budgets and the provision of sexual health services, because in the main they are very directly related, as you say.
		We also had evidence again from Nick Partridge at the Terrence Higgins Trust about the impact of the disaggregation of county councils, when individual district councils opted out of funding fairly crucial voluntary sector groups.

		This month began with world AIDS awareness day and the news from the Terence Higgins Trust that the number of cases in the UK as well as Worldwide, had increased yet again, but that awareness of HIV and AIDS (in terms of risk and transmission etc) was at the lowest level since the 1980's.
		A campaign (similar to the original "Don't die of ignorance" campaign) to attempt to rectify this is due to begin next year.
		Have a good Christmas holiday and a happy New Year, don't stress out too much over any exams you may have next term (good luck to BPP students for the 1st MCT and the Advocacy assessment!) I'll be back in my office hour as of the 2nd week in January.
