EmailFive HIV positive British charity ambassadors are to attend a historic Aids conference in the United States.
It will be the first since the US lifted its ban on people with the virus entering the country.
Three women and two men, all in their early 20s, will be attending the International Aids Conference in Washington DC which runs from Sunday to Wednesday.
The ambassadors, from the London-based HIV charity Body and Soul, will showcase the work of the charity which attempts to change how HIV is perceived.
