Poet, artist and HIV campaigner Vince Laws along with concerned local service users are concerned about the sell off and changes to GUM/HIV services in Norwich and Norfolk.
They have organised a petition calling on Dr Sujeevani Munasinghe at the Norfolk Public Health Department to halt any changes to services without full consultation with service users.

Vince said: “The service will be split across two locations in Norwich, risking public health and patient confidentiality. In Birmingham, HIV+ people are now seen in the Infectious Diseases Dept, further stigmatising them. We should not allow this to happen to some of the most stigmatised and vulnerable people in Norwich and Norfolk without proper consultation. It is really important that people sign the petition.”
