BHA for Equality Sexual Health Team

Our charity, BHA For Equality (BHA)’s aim is to challenge and address health and social care inequalities and to support individuals and communities to improve their health and wellbeing. BHA (BHAF, Black HIV/AIDS Forum) was started in 1990 and was formed from a grassroots movement set up in response to the lack of HIV information and services for Black communities in Manchester. It was developed to ensure that Black communities had access to accurate and culturally appropriate information on HIV. BHA further developed to advocate for the delivery of health and care services for Black and ethnic minority communities at local, regional and national level. BHA now runs funded projects for Black and ethnic minority communities and those who are marginalised or disadvantaged across the North West and Yorkshire.
