Rugby star Sacha Harding has bared all for a photo shoot for the U.K. magazine Gay Times to support Elton John’s AIDS foundation.

"AIDS is such a devastating disease for so many people around the world and I was honored to get this opportunity to try and do my part to help raise awareness of the disease and ultimately save lives," Harding says.

Last year Harding, who plays with Bedford Blues, was also voted "Britain’s manliest man" after winning a nationwide competition organized by men’s grooming brand The Bluebeards Revenge.

LONDON -- The number of people living with HIV in the UK reached an estimated 91,500 in 2010, with a quarter of those unaware of their infection, according to Health Protection Agency figures published today.

The data, released by the HPA ahead of World AIDS Day on Thursday, also shows the highest ever rate of new infections.

More than 3,000 gay men were diagnosed with HIV last year, as part of 6,660 new infections in the population as a whole.

The 2010 figures mean 100,000 people may be living with the virus in the UK by the end of this year.
