Meet others
Talk to someone who understands and is living with hiv. Share experiences and grow – for a better life with hiv
By people with hiv - for people with hiv
We understand you, for real. Through activities, meet ups and gatherings we support each other and exchange experiences, for a better life with hiv. From group meet ups, a spontaneous coffee chat or an online buddy, our network gathers people from all walks of life living with hiv. We meet on a regular basis in Malmö, but from time to time also arrange meet ups in Blekinge, Småland and Halland, offering you a chance to connect to others and have fun. Want to know more?

Frequently asked questions
Im worried my status will be exposed if I visit you
We do not keep records of who visits or calls us. You should feel safe that your status is yours only to talk about.
Why should I meet other people living with hiv?
People usually express a relief to talk with someone that has experienced a similar situation. Hiv is still stigmatized and by many rarely talked about openly. To share experiences, practical advice and thoughts can be very liberating as its decreases the feeling of isolation.
Where do you usually meet?
We usually meet in our office at Jörgen Ankersgatan 12 in Malmö. We have a relaxing living space where its possible to sit down and socialize without anyone disturbing us.
I dont live in Malmö, can I still visit/join you?
Absolutely!
We might even be able to cover your expenses for traveling if you visits us. Get in touch and well see what we can do.
What languages do you speak?
We speak English, Swedish and Thai. At our group activites we adapt to whomever is attending. Most often it turns out to be a mix of Swedish and English. We can also book a translator.
Do you recommend a certain group for me?
No, what we have in common is hiv. Whatever you might identify as, or how you label yourself, we are open to you. Do feel welcome 🙂
