World AIDS Day is held on the 1st December every year.
It is an international day to raise awareness about HIV and
AIDS around the world. The first World AIDS Day was on
the 1st December 1988.

The red ribbon is worn as a sign of support for people living with HIV. Wearing a red ribbon for World AIDS Day is a simple and powerful way to show support and challenge the stigma and prejudice surrounding HIV and AIDS that prevents us from tackling HIV in the UK and internationally.
