An aid to AIDS awareness

Today was World Aids Day, when awareness of prevention of the spread of this terrible disease was most on the mind of Student Union President Gavin Foster.


Gavin
and a few others spent their lunchtime in Reception asking for donations in exchange for an official red ribbon.


Also available was a little red pack which contained a set of cards with easy to read no nonsense facts about how we must take responsibility for our health. Checking through the cards she'd just opened, Fazzy told us they were "very informative".

By the end of the lunch hour nearly £25 had been collected in donations for National Aids Trust ribbons and quite a few conversations had jolted others into taking the threat of HIV and Aids very seriously.


If you need more information, one of the red card packs or to make a further donation, please come to the Student Union Common Room.
