Welcome to the website of The Cara Trust

We are the UK’s leading charity focusing on the spiritual and pastoral support needs of people living with or affected by HIV. 2008 marks our 20th year of providing essential social welfare and spiritual support services for people living with HIV across London and beyond.

We were founded by Fr. David Randall in 1988 as a community of friendship of people living with HIV. The word ‘Cara’ is derived from the Gaelic word for ‘friend’. We believe that our focus on ‘community’ and ‘friendship’ still holds true today. These are key aspects that continue to make Cara unique as an HIV charity.

What's New?
April 2008 - We'd like to say a big thanks to Lloyds TSB Foundation and Peter Moores Foundation for investing in our Women's group, run in partnership with Positively Women, for the next 2 years. This will enable us to continue providing much needed support and activities for women living with HIV. Thanks also to Westminster Primary Care Trust for supporting our free yoga classes at the group for the year ahead. In addition, we've added Belly Dancing classes to the group activities for 2008. Please call us for more details.
