Description
Additional poster text: Could you? Probably not. That's why he came to us. We didn't tell Amy for him though. We just helped him find the strength to tell her himself. That's how we work. That's why London Lighthouse provides information, care and support for anyone affected by HIV and AIDS. Amy doesn't understand yet, but one day, she will. Young or old. Him or her. Black or white. Straight or gay. AIDS doesn't care. We do. We need you to as well.
