Spectra HIV Support - Red Iris Project

Spectra have started a free, confidential, and non-judgemental peer support service for people living with HIV across the boroughs of Harrow, Hillingdon and Ealing - the Red Iris Project. Whether through professional referrals, self-referrals, or to refer family or friends, anyone living with HIV is welcome.

Delivered by trained Peer Support Workers with lived experience of HIV, the Red Iris Project offers:

• One-to-one and group peer support sessions
• Guidance on self-management, disclosure, relationships and wellbeing
• Links to local community and healthcare services
• Confidence-building and goal-setting support

Their aim is to create a safe, inclusive space where people can connect, share, and receive emotional and practical support from others who truly understand what they’re going through. Click the link below to register:

The society also give a big shoutout to the generous Brunel community - they saw people paying higher than the set prices just so they can donate/contribute more!

Looking to next week, the Nepali society are putting on a film night on Tuesday - a little early/midweek breather. It'll be from 6pm-10pm, in Lecture room B in the Lecture Centre.

Football cooked up a storm this week, with a clean sweep of victories for all teams. The women's team were the biggest standout, though, this week: they beat Bucks New Uni 15-0!

Another big week for Rugby; Men's 1 returned to top of the league, beating tital rivals Bristol 57-17. All men's rugby teams had strong wins this week. Women's 1 bounced back in Super Rugby with a 50-19 thrashing of Cardiff.

Alongside sporting success, next Friday there is an exclusive Jump Giants Trampoline Park session for Brunel! It'll be from 4-5pm, meeting at Union Reception @ 3pm - travel will be included:
