What is the research?

This research study is organised by Hwupenyu Health & Wellbeing Project (http://www.hwupenyuproject.org, Charity Number SC044991), a charity based in Glasgow. They advocate and provide support for Black and Minority Ethnic people in Scotland with chronic health conditions.

This data will help us inform our work on HIV prevention, and assisting Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities living with HIV.
