Hear from the past, present & future – living with HIV at Melbourne’s AIDS Candlelight Vigil

Over the weekend, AIDS Candlelight Vigils were held around the world, acknowledging people living with HIV and those that were lost to the disease.

Tonight, we will hear from Living Positive Victoria & the Victorian AIDS Council‘s Candlelight Vigil yesterday evening.

Supported by the Low Rez Choir singing Cyndi Lauper’s “True Colours”, you’ll hear from Max Niggl, Heather, Bill O’Loughlin and Fiona Patten as they braved the cold and wet and spoke about the past, and the bright future that people living with HIV have today.
