About Wandsworth Oasis
Since its foundation in 1989, Wandsworth Oasis has provided support to – and challenged stigma towards – those living with HIV.
Using revenue generated by our nine charity shops located in London, as well as fundraising initiatives, we provide small and large grants to organisations providing direct support and prevention services to HIV positive individuals.

🚨 HIV Myths—BUSTED! 🚨
Misinformation fuels stigma, and it’s time to set the record straight. Let’s break down these common HIV misconceptions:
❌ Myth 1: You can get HIV from casual contact like hugging or sharing food.
✅ Truth: HIV cannot be transmitted through touch, saliva, or sharing utensils. It spreads through specific bodily fluids, not everyday interactions.
❌ Myth 2: Only certain groups of people are at risk of HIV.
✅ Truth: HIV does not discriminate—anyone can contract it, regardless of gender, sexuality, or background. Education and prevention matter for everyone.
❌ Myth 3: HIV always leads to AIDS.
✅ Truth: With proper treatment, people living with HIV can lead long, healthy lives and never develop AIDS. Early diagnosis and medication make a huge difference!
💡 Knowledge is power. The more we educate ourselves, the closer we get to ending stigma. Help spread the truth—share this post! 💬
