Terry was the first named person in the UK to die of an AIDS-related illness in July 1982.

In #TipToe, Leo's been living with HIV for 30 years. In the series finale HIV-related abuse raises its ugly head.
We want everyone to know the facts about HIV. But we can't shy away from the reality of stigma and discrimination many people living with HIV still face.
