About Wandsworth Oasis
Since its foundation in 1989, Wandsworth Oasis has provided support to – and challenged stigma towards – those living with HIV.
Using revenue generated by our nine charity shops located in London, as well as fundraising initiatives, we provide small and large grants to organisations providing direct support and prevention services to HIV positive individuals.
🌈 Happy May, everyone! Did you know that it’s #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth? 🧠 Let’s take a moment to discuss the important link between #MentalHealth and #HIV. 💊 It’s no secret that mental health and HIV care go hand in hand. People living with HIV have a higher risk of developing mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. 🤯 And unfortunately, these conditions can make it harder for someone to manage their HIV care, leading to poorer health outcomes. 😔 That’s why it’s crucial to integrate mental health services into HIV prevention, treatment, and care. By doing so, we can reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and make it easier for those living with or at risk of HIV to seek the care they need to thrive. 🌎 Let’s work towards #healthequity and prioritize both mental health and HIV care this month and beyond. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #globalhealth 💜
Thank you @bigyellowselfstorage for your ongoing support 💚

Did you know that taking HIV medication during pregnancy can greatly reduce the risk of passing the virus to your baby? It’s a crucial step in protecting both your own health and the health of your little one. As a healthcare professional, I urge all expecting mothers to prioritize their well-being and take the necessary precautions to prevent HIV transmission. Let’s work together to ensure a healthy and happy future for you and your baby. #HIVandPregnant #ProtectYourHealth #PreventHIVTransmission #hiv #hivawarness #hivpostive

This powerful reel is a reminder of the importance of staying on top of your HIV medication. Why? Because Undetectable = Untransmittable.
That’s right, if someone has an undetectable viral load, they cannot sexually transmit HIV to others.
So let’s keep spreading awareness and breaking the stigma surrounding HIV💊💚

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room, the stigma surrounding HIV.
It’s time to break the silence and take action. Our future generations are counting on us to create a world without discrimination and judgment towards those living with HIV.
If we don’t act now, history will remember us as the ones who perpetuated this harmful stigma.
Let’s be on the right side of history and join the movement to #StopHIVStigma. Together, we can make a difference and create a more inclusive and accepting society.
