The Brigstowe Project aims to enhance the quality of life for people living with HIV by providing directly managed appropriate housing and support; working with people living with HIV and other agencies to provide support, information, advice, advocacy and training.   The Brigstowe Project is a housing organisation, established in 1991, which grew out of the 'Bristol HIV & Housing Group', which comprised representatives from Bristol City Council (BCC) Social Services HIV Team and the Housing Department; Avon Health, Bristol Churches HA, Bristol Drugs Project and the Aled Richards Trust. The group's aim was to identify and plan for the housing needs of people living with HIV in the area.
