Details

HIV Conversations is a new initiative at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, where each month, a different speaker explores different aspects of living with HIV, such as diagnosis, fighting stigma, love, dating and sex. Staged in the hospital’s state-of-the-art MediCinema, which the public are invited to attend. The HIV Conversations take place on first Wednesday of each month.

Barry Dew

Everyone knows Barry’s amiable manner and friendly face in the Kobler waiting room: he tirelessly heads the St Stephen’s Volunteers.

Now hear him tell his own story about why he got involved with the St Stephen’s Volunteers, his own experience of volunteering at a HIV/AIDS hospital in Africa, and what drives him on to still campaign in 2017.

Sound recordings of the previous conversations are archived online.

The colourful MediCinema is on the 3rd floor (Lift Bank C) and has capacity for 40 seats, 6 wheelchairs and 4 beds, which as well as providing conference facilities, enables patients to enjoy time away from wards.
