Episode 11, Nov 23, 2023, 05:55 PM
Gareth Thomas takes part in a Women's Roundtable, a candid and powerful discussion aimed at confronting challenges faced by women in sports, healthcare, and wider society, as well as addressing the under-recognised impact of HIV on women.
Globally, women make up more than half of those living with HIV, yet the prevailing myths suggest otherwise, contributing to delayed diagnoses and inadequate support.
Gareth is joined by an influential group, including athlete Sally Gunnell, F1 reporter Natalie Pinkham, HIV advocate Becky Mitchell, hockey star Kate Richardson-Walsh, epidemiologist Kevin Fenton, and ViiV Healthcare’s Dr Nneka Nwokolo and Helen McDowell, to dive into the unique challenges women face and highlight the urgent need for a shift in public dialogue.
The conversation celebrates the progress made for women’s opportunities and underscores the importance of continued advocacy for women's rights and representation across all sectors.
