Loaded: Wed, 01/06/2016 - 09:31

PHE’s HIV Innovation Fund is back and is now open to entries for 2016/17. 
 
PHE is encouraging voluntary organisations to apply for national funding to support innovative HIV projects across England that could help prevent HIV across England.
 
Proposals are particularly welcomed that tackle:

  • diagnosis for both HIV and other sexually transmitted infections
  • stigma associated with HIV
  • other risky behaviours that can increase risk of contracting HIV such as drug and alcohol misuse
  • the integration of HIV prevention into wider sexual and reproductive health

The application phase for the new National HIV prevention innovation fund opened on Tuesday 10 May, running until Wednesday 15 June 2016.
 
Applications are encouraged from voluntary sector organisations, supported by their local authority, for projects that target groups at high risk.
 
The total available fund for 2016 to 2017 is up to £600,000. Those interested in the fund are asked to register at hiv.prevention@phe.gov.uk
