Online Communities Highland
HIV and sexual health charity Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) Scotland has just launched a range of online communities for people living with HIV, people living with Hepatitis C, people who identify as transgender and for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in the Highlands.
The online communities offer support to people who may feel isolated and an opportunity to get in contact with people in similar situations. After signing up as a member, users can email each other, ask questions, express worries, announce an event or just have an online chat.
Agnes Boes, Health Promotion Specialist for THT Scotland said “Many people living with HIV or Hepatitis C in the Highlands may live remotely or feel isolated. The same applies to those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. These virtual communities provide a place where people can meet online and share experiences. If you’ve got internet access and you think one of these groups might be for you, please log on!”
The online community for people with HIV can be found at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HighlandHIVpos
