St Stephen’s AIDS Trust was founded in 1991 to support clinical research in HIV / AIDS, to improve the quality of life for people living with HIV / AIDS and to share knowledge and experience through education and training.

St Stephen's AIDS Trust sponsors a wide variety of important research and clinical trials, performed in its dedicated HIV Research Unit at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital,  improving the care of HIV positive patients and contributing to many major, multicentre studies that continue to revolutionise the treatment of HIV infection.

It has a large educational remit,  running short courses in HIV and STIs at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital for healthcare professionals in the UK .  In addition, the charity provides HIV workshops and HIV training programmes in resource poor countries.
