HIV Peer Support
We run peer support group meetings each Friday to enable people share experiences and support each other. The organisation also works to advance education on various aspects relating to HIV.
The Gilead Sewing project
The Gilead Sewing Project has been one of Red Ribbon Living Well’s most impactful initiatives in 2023 and 2024, aimed at providing participants with practical skills, a sense of community, and emotional support. The project began by offering regular, structured sewing sessions, attended consistently by 15 participants. These sessions were designed not only to teach technical skills but also to encourage creativity and self-expression. Initially, participants started by creating simple items such as bags and cushions, gradually advancing to more complex clothing projects as their confidence and skills grew. This progression allowed members to see their own development over time, boosting their sense of accomplishment and self-worth.
The organsiation organises trainings, seminars, focus groups on positive self management, living well and managing other long term conditions.
