Company activities and impact

GAY MEN'S HEALTH COLLECTIVE delivered its three primary projects successfully: MENRUS.CO.UK informs and supports gay and bi men and MSM, a comprehensive health and well-being website divided into six key sections on health, life and well-being issues with resources and links to further information and support. New and updated content included: finding a solicitor, your rights on arrest, STI statistics and trends, LGBT+ rights, HIV peer mentoring, living well with HIV, HIV stigma, HIV treatment centres, camp, HIV organisations, campaigns and support groups, blood donation, and LGBTQ+ glossary of words and terms. Visitors steady. No back end technical issues. PIP PAC are safer packs for gay men and GBMSM to reduce drug harms and the transmission of blood borne infections including HIV, HCV and other STIs. New card box designed and produced to our own specification (delivered in Dec 2023). Demand for packs steady though a marked increase over this period. All print resources updated in line with the SAFER campaign (see below). THREE FLYING PIGLETS makes films on gay men's health issues for MENRUS.CO.UK and online distribution, and films for the wider LGBT community and allies. Continued to make short films on a budget, developing enduring partnerships and collaborations with like-minded organisations. Films during this period: "HCV test and treat", "Be who you want to be" (Pride 2023); "The Difference", "Sweets from strangers", Out of this World and "The Droplet" (re-edited); "World AIDS Day 2023", "Ending HIV Stigma: More Than a Sound bite", "It Goes On" (Seasonal Ad), "Medicine Under the Microscope" (LGBT+ History Month 2024). Two additional projects: SYCU A collaboration with London Ambulance Service, developed Stuff You Can't Unsee (SYCU), a harm reduction tool for crews utilising cards with QR codes to give out, linked to a dedicated support website. SAFER Delivered the "Safer" campaign, the first chemsex harm reduction campaign for GBMSM Londoners. Distribution of 20,000 packs through sexual health and drug services, HIV and LGBT+ organisations, and gay and LGBT+ scenes venues. Packs contained six booklets and leaflets: Health and wellbeing (A5 booklet), Hook-up safer (A6 booklet), Overdoses and calling 999 (A6 leaflet), Safer chemsex (A5 booklet), HIV/ STI/ HCV “Risk-O-Meter” (A5 leaflet), Your rights on arrest (A6 booklet); and Hep C home testing kit perforated slips. Overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Consultation with stakeholders

GMHC is user lead and run and continues to consult with stakeholders through volunteers, one-on-one conversations, target audiences, training events, and electronic feedback This was particularly relevant in developing content for the SAFER campaign where, those involved in its development, were gay men with direct knowledge and experience of recreational drug use; and problematic drug use, withdrawal, and recovery. Many voluntary sector organisations with relevant expertise assisted with the review of information Including hepatitis C, drugs on the law, health and well-being within the context of chemsex. Volunteers distributing SAFER packs through venues and outlets across London engaged with the GBMSM community reported back that the packs were well received and the welcome return to health outreach GMHC remains a small, friendly and accessible organisation; and independent - driven by its volunteers. The move to a street office remains on hold though this has not affected the effective delivery of any of the projects.
