A Liverpool woman who worked during the AIDS crisis has reflected on the true extent of the virus outbreak.
Kathleen Charters, who lives in the city centre, worked during the 80s and 90s as a massage therapist. She first got involved after volunteering with an organisation called The Lighthouse in London. There, she was desperately trying to understand what she could do to help and assist people living with HIV - especially the LGBTQ+ community.
With this in mind, the 60-year-old tried her hand at massage therapy as people were looking for alternative remedies at the time due to a lack of medication.
