Who are we

George House Trust is the second-oldest HIV charity in the UK, and the largest voluntary sector HIV organisation outside of London.

Launched in July 1985, George House Trust provides support services to people living with HIV, their carers, partners and families across the North West of England.  We are recognised nationally as a campaigning organisation, and through our experience as a service provider we have contributed to, and influenced the development of statutory and voluntary responses to the UK's HIV epidemic. 

The aim of George House Trust is to provide the best quality of life to people living with or affected by HIV.  Our "still life with HIV" message is at the centre of the organisation's philosophy and campaigning and seeks to empower people living with HIV to lead a full life. 

Our services are completely free of charge and are open to anyone living with or affected by HIV in the North West of England.

Our comprehensive range of services includes the following:

In 2007-08 we provided advice and support to over 2,000 men, women and children living with or affected by HIV.  This continues to be our crowning achievement.  We have continued to survive because of our ability to respond quickly to the changing needs of people living with HIV, and because of our passionate commitment to campaigning for the best quality of life for all positive people.
