Thanks for the feedback on SAAFE and when you do the survey for FLASH.

I really appreciate hearing such positive experiences on SAAFE, in survey and the interviews.

many thanks!

Hi Monica, I completed the survey and I have no problem with you using anything I have said on this or any other site. I use my working name on the different sex work forums I am a member of and my website is usually below my name, Gina

The FLASH site is still up and running with FREE kits available to sex workers across the UK. https://flashhivtest.co.uk/
We are definitely running it until end of June and we hope it will continue beyond then. Just in planning stages about where next with it.

We have almost completed our evaluation of the FLASH Pilot. Thanks to anyone who took part in this (survey or interviews). Almost 90% of comments were really really positive    about this service. I was so delighted to read and hear all your comments, and brilliant feedback and ideas.

We are not quite able to share the results as yet. We hope to share it at an HIV and Sexual Health Conference in June (if successful) to raise the profile of this pilot to SH commissioners and providers across the UK. We hope to share a results summary no this site later this year.
A lot of those who took part found out about it from SAAFE - so thanks to you all for sharing your experience and spreading the word!

Hi all,

This week is National HIV Testing Week, make sure you get a free and confidential HIV test!

People can live with HIV for a long time without any symptoms, testing is the only way to know your HIV status. You can order your own self-testing kit from https://flashhivtest.co.uk/order-your-test/

Remember: anyone diagnosed with HIV in the UK can access free treatment and support. If you have HIV, finding out means that you can start treatment, stay healthy and avoid passing the virus onto anyone else.

Kind regards,
Flash

Hi All,

I really hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! This is just a message to let you know that FLASH HIV self testing kits are still available throughout this quarantine period; we are aiming to get them out as soon as possible after they have been ordered. Just order yours here https://flashhivtest.co.uk/

I'm just adding a link to wellbeing top tips, some self-care is really important at the moment- we're in this together! https://adfam.org.uk/files/6-ideas-for-wellbeing.pdf

All the best,
FLASH
