Positive
East
provides a wide range of social and support groups for a variety
of different communities. For all of our groups, we suggest that
you come along for an introductory informal chat before attending
your first group.
If you would like to receive a newsletter about services and activities provided by Positive East and the Gay Men's team, please send your email address to GMST Newsletter, or telephone Positive
East on 020 7791 2855 with your details.
It can be difficult to keep up to date with all the various groups, events and activities which happen within Positive East.
So to make life easier we've introduced a calendar page. This shows on a monthly basis all the programmes which we run within Positive East sites, along with outreach and Forum events we are involved in - We hope you find it of use.

Positive Life
Helping You move towards a positive future
Positive Life is an activities group run by and for HIV positive gay men. Meeting at the Positive East Stepney Centre, the group is open to all positive gay men, bisexual men and men who do not identify as gay, embracing men from all ethnic backgrounds.If you live, work or receive your healthcare in East London, then this group is for you. It aims to help HIV positive gay men:
Develop a new social network with other HIV positive gay men;
Become more knowledgeable about HIV and its treatments;
Obtain and provide peer support with other HIV positive gay men.
The meetings are a mix of information and social events. With two sessions held each month during its programme, the events are mixed, so while one session has a specific theme, the other will be more social and general chat.
The group is not a closed group, so you can come to any session you like. However, we do encourage members to attend more than one session per term, to benefit from the group's social aspects.
