Its main activities include:
- regular meetings in Parliament with guest speakers from the HIV sector in the UK and abroad
- co-ordinated written and oral parliamentary questions and debates
- public and private meetings with ministers and officials
- briefings for Members on the HIV/AIDS implications of legislation
- information for HIV/AIDS organisations on parliamentary business
- joint meetings with other All-Party Groups.
The website includes publications and a record of discussions of HIV/AIDS in the UK parliament.
