My first date after I was HIV+Philip Dehany2025-02-16 | As we conclude this year’s National HIV Testing Week, I took to the stage at the Two Brewers in Clapham, London, to share my story.
On behalf of the @TerrenceHigginsTrust and supported by Positive Voices.
Thank you to David Allwood for letting me share the stage at @HOMOPARODY Stupid Love.
Please get tested!
The Terrence Higgins Trust is committed to the goal of ending the transmission of HIV in the UK by 2030.
The UK can be the first country in the world to end new cases of HIV.
But we can only do this by first getting tested.

Six years after I was stalked and harassed because of my sexuality. The impact of Alex Belfield continues to incite other YouTube creators to target me for being gay.
In a video made yesterday Simon Webb, posted on his YouTube channel @HistoryDebunkedsimonwebb calling me an “hysterical homosexual” in the latest of a series of videos he has made about my stalker.
Meanwhile I was marching with the Terrence Higgins Trust for the fourth year running at Pride In London.
#londonpride #pride #lgbtq #gay #london #pridemonth #lgbt #ukpride #gaypride10 years of being HIV+Philip Dehany2026-05-21 | Today I celebrate 10 years of being HIV+
I’ve spoken openly about how transformative my diagnosis has been.
From keeping my status private for the first six years to now finding my voice and openly fighting stigma by working with some incredible HIV charities.
It hasn’t always been easy, but I have never stopped being grateful for all the support I’ve had along the way from, my family, friends and my community.
I really do love my life, and feel so lucky to still be here.
I hope that I can continue to inspire and inform people what it’s like to live with HIV, because it really did get better.

The Food Chain along with the Terrence Higgins Trust are charities that literally saved my life, and it has been a privilege to represent them, and inspire others.
I was so nervous to deliver this speech but was inspired by Anna from the Food Chain and Richard from the Terrence Higgins Trust, who have shown me such kindness, friendship and support.

Positively UK is ran for and by people living with HIV. At Positively UK they provide peer-led support, advocacy and information to those living with HIV to effectively manage any aspect of their diagnosis, care and life with HIV.
I was very excited to take part in this year’s Great Scottish Run in Glasgow on 5th October 2025.
I was born in Troon on the west coast of Scotland, so this run really felt like coming home. Especially as it was the first time my mum, dad and godfather were able to come along on the day to cheer me along.
It was my second Great Run, after completing the Great North Run in 2022. My time then was 02:08:44 so I was thrilled to beat it by 10 minutes!
For this run, I raised money for Positively UK an incredible HIV charity based in East London, where I live.
The team at Positively UK helped me after I had a breakdown in 2023.
By referring me to local HIV services on my door step, that I had no idea existed.
Sadly a lot of these services are no longer available as many HIV charities including Positively UK are struggling financially.
This year they lost funding for the Gay Men’s Project. A monthly meet up that I used to attend.
For many, it was a vital service, and a unique safe space and community for gay men of all ages to meet and chat.
It’s my honour to have ran to raise money for Positively UK to help secure funding to keep their services running.
This is a video of a interview I did for BBC News about Positivity UK:

Thank you to everyone who donated and helped me to raise a staggering £4,287 over the last four years, and six races for the Terrence Higgins Trust.
This charity helped me beyond words to come to terms with my HIV diagnosis and to learn to love myself again.
They helped me to find my voice, stamp out stigma, and be damn fucking proud of who I am.
Thank you Terry, for the legacy you left for all of us.

Or is it another hoax?Philip Dehany2025-09-19 | #AlexBelfield #BBCpresenterscandal #VoiceofReason
On Friday 12 September 2025 it was reported that Alex Belfield was banned from "uploading, adding, modifying or streaming any material on any site or app".
Former MP Andrew Bridgen confirmed this on X saying:
“I had dinner this evening with my old friend Alex Belfield. He has been banned from the internet by the Stazi, but he is ok and his emergency injunction against the MOJ will be filed in court next week.In these crazy times we all need to hear a Voice Of Reason.”
Investigative journalist Mark Williams-Thomas has now questioned this:
“Andrew I am keen to know the details of Bellfield's internet ban. He is not subject to a SOPO where internet restrictions can be applied? He would have to have a court order to ban him, but using what legislation? Correct me with facts if I am wrong, but I suspect he has been warned about his continued harassing online behaviour by probation given he is on licence . Easy to criticise others for actions, but if you are going to post something then please make it truthful and evidenced, which I strongly suspect it's not. I await to hear from you with supporting evidence that Belfield has been banned from the internet, rather than warned by probation about his ongoing harassing behaviour?”
Previously. On 15th April 2020 Alex Belfield pretended he had deleted Twitter. Within days he was continuing to post on Twitter. Now known as X. Belfield still has an active profile.
On 8th May 2020 Belfield posted a video claiming he was leaving YouTube.
As one of his victims, Philip Dehany believed this. In his post on Facebook, he hoped Alex Belfield would "find peace":
“Alex Belford posted what he indicates will be his last video on his YouTube channel Celebrity Radio. For anyone who has followed this story over the past month. The last two weeks have been incredibly hard, with some more recent incidents that I did not document publicly. It has tested me emotionally more than anything in my life, and it has taken a lot of strength to overcome, but I am proud that I managed to find my way back, and had begun to feel good again by yesterday. Before Alex even made this announcement. It goes to show, we're all stronger than we think. And I hope that anyone who is feeling isolated or defeated, knows there is hope, and light, and an end in sight. And to everyone who supported me, and reached out and looked out for me, I thank you. As for Alex, I hope you find peace in your own time.”
The next day, Alex Belfield confirmed his video as a hoax:
“Performance Art 1. Alex proves acting is easy... File under - 'Hook Line Sinker'. Let's bring joy to the trolls & watch their heads explode with the palpable excitement of believing Celebrity Radio & it's creators mental health is destroyed. Yay! #bekind hypocrites exposed 2020! "Goodbye from Alex Belfield @ Celebrity Radio" Oscar, BAFTA and two thumbs up please! Stay tuned as next we out the 'pile on trolls' one by one this week. We'll name and shame those stupid enough to fall for the 'sacked' prank that we've been doing for 20 years. We'll also remind you of how all this started and play you the unedited tape from mummy. Who's the real victim? All fair game. X Isn't isolation & 2020 theatre a hoot! Breathtaking. Thanks for the hits! We're up 436,000+ Stay tuned”
The "hoax" was presented as evidence in Alex Belfield's trial.
On 19th September 2025, Retired Detective Constable Janet Percival posted her views on TikTok.
vm.tiktok.com/ZNdpAaTkbThe truth about Alex Belfield from DC Janet Percival (originally posted 4th August 2025)Philip Dehany2025-09-14 | Whist at Nottinghamshire Police, DC Janet Percival was the arresting officer who arrested and interviewed Alex Belfield.
Her investigation led to his conviction for stalking.
Belfield fought back, calling her “corrupt”, Percival successfully sued Belfield for defamation.
Janet is now retired, living happily in Costa Rica with her husband.
Since his release from prison, Belfield refuses to acknowledge what he did, claiming he is “not sorry” and “did nothing wrong”.
He returned to YouTube, and continued to harass his victims.
Janet Percival had now come forward to share her experience, her truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
These videos have been reproduced from her TikTok account, Janet Wendleken @costaricandream originally posted between 4th - 7th August 2025.

⏰ TikTok tiktok.com/@philipdehanyAlex Belfield Civil Case Update: I’ve paid forward all the donations to charity.Philip Dehany2025-08-27 | #AlexBelfield #VoiceofReason #BBCPresenterScandal
Two years ago, I started a crowd funder to ask for help paying my legal costs in my civil case against my stalker Alex Belfield.
I wasn’t ashamed to ask for help when I needed it, and I was incredibly grateful to everyone who donated to support me.
Despite being called a grifter and a beggar and told to get a job and pay my own legal fees. I pledged to pay forward all the donations to charity, if I won my case.
I was incredibly grateful to everyone who donated to my crowdfunder and I raised £1,860 which I was able to pay my solicitor.
Unfortunately my case is still on going, but I am now in a much better place and in a position where I can afford to match what I raised, and donate it all to charity like I promised that I would.
I have made donations to four charities, the Terrence Higgins Trust, Positively UK, Amnesty International and the Food Chain.
And I will be racing to raise money and awareness for them.
Over the past four years I have completed:
London Marathon 2021 Great North Run 2022 Brighton Marathon 2023 World AIDS Day Red Run 2023 London Landmarks Half Marathon 2024 World AIDS Day Red Run 2024
And raised £4,097 for HIV charities.
Over the next three months, I will run four more races.

Three years ago, I had a stalker who found out that I was HIV+ and made videos about me on YouTube.
At the time, it devastated me. I didn’t want to be here.
That is when I turned to the Terrence Higgins Trust who made me feel that I had nothing to be ashamed of.
I was proud of who I am.
These people, my friends, and my community are the ones that got me through it.
But it’s taught me to never stop fighting.
And I will never ever give up.
Because as long as there’s stigma in the world, I will challenge it.

View the entire UK AIDS Memorial Quilt in Tate Modern's Turbine Hall from 12 June to 16 June.
For the first time in its history, the entire UK AIDS Memorial Quilt will be laid out in Tate Modern's Turbine Hall. This is a unique opportunity to experience the Quilt in its entirety. Each stitch is a powerful testament to grief, protest, love, and a refusal to forget. It's more than an artwork; it's a living voice, a vital piece of history.
About the UK AIDS Quilt Partnership The UK AIDS Memorial Quilt is an irreplaceable piece of our social history, telling the stories of many individuals lost during the early days of the HIV AIDS epidemic in the 80s and 90s. After years in storage, this monumental work is now being brought back into the public eye, thanks to the AIDS Memorial Quilt Conservation Partnership. This vital initiative aims to raise awareness of the Quilt's historical importance, and to conserve and restore it for future generations.
The Partnership includes: Positive East, Sahir House, The Food Chain, Waverley Care, the Terrence Higgins Trust, George House Trust and Positively UK.
This display is presented by Tate in partnership with the UK AIDS Quilt Partnership and initiated by Charlie Porter. Curated by Elliot Gibbons Collaborative Doctoral Researcher.

This is an update regarding Alex Belfield who was convicted of stalking myself, Jeremy Vine and two other men, and was sentenced to over five years in prison.
He is to be released on 15th June 2025.
Despite restraining orders being in place, Belfield has continued to complain and attempt to have my videos taken down by YouTube whilst posting his own videos about me on his own website behind a paywall.
Nottingham Police and my solicitor have been informed and are aware of this.
My civil case against Alex Belfield for harassment is still on going.
I instructed Samuels Solicitors In October 2022 to act on my behalf in a civil case against Belfield for harassment. After Belfield continued to post videos about me throughout his trial.
Belfield has since settled claims presented by Jeremy Vine and DC Percival, but refuses to acknowledge mine.
Since October 2022, I’ve now paid over £27,970 In legal fees.
I raised £1,712 (after fees) in donations through Crowd Justice, which I vowed I will pay forward and donate to HIV charities if I win damages.
I am grateful to everyone who helped me by donating to my crowd funder, and to my solicitor and barrister.

It then cost £4,116 in court fees to submit the claim.
That is over £22,086 in legal costs, that I would lose if I walked away.
