2010 is George House Trust's 25th Birthday!
25 years ago the foundations of George House Trust were laid by 6 gay men meeting in the old Gay Centre in Bloom Street, Manchester’s gay village.
2010 is George House Trust’s silver jubilee year, because our 25th birthday falls this July. We intend to celebrate and build on our legacy for the next 25 years.
George House Trust has kept an eye always on the bigger picture – past the city boundary, past our first focus on gay men, past the year ahead, putting HIV in its wider social and political context, and working out how to reach our vision of the best quality of life for people living with HIV.
Our six founders can be enormously proud that their baby, George House Trust, has thrived and grown, and is now the second oldest surviving UK HIV organisation – Terrence Higgins Trust is a year older. We’ve a strong national reputation for quality, innovation and leadership. And we’re proud of our radical northern roots and no-nonsense attitude to saying what needs to be said, and getting the job done. Please join and support us this year and in the years ahead.
