Body Positive Day

Friday 21st Jun 2013,

Body Positive Day is a fantastic opportunity to raise funds and HIV awareness!

Fundraising is a great way to get to know your friends or colleagues and to support the charity.

For local businesses, this is a chance to team-build and to show your customers that you are a responsible business that cares for your local community... and it's great fun!

Why not get staff and customers to wear fancy dress or take on a sponsored activity ...sky-diving perhaps!

The funds you raise will have a direct positive impact on the lives of local people living with HIV by proving counselling, practical support and back to work advice.

The funds you raise will have a direct positive impact on educating local young people about keeping safe and HIV prevention.

The funds you raise will have a direct positive impact on reducing the stigma & discrimination faced by local HIV positive people.


YOUR HELP IS MUCH NEEDED...
We suffered a 27% Central Funding Cut in 2012
Your money will be spent locally
We are the ONLY service in the area
Anyone can be infected with HIV
HIV is spreading fastest in 16-24 yr olds
Every £1 raised is spent on our service

So please get involved and have fun making a difference.


WHAT TO DO NOW...
1. Simply contact us for a free fundraising kit containing lots of inspiration, ideas and information!

2. Contact us to let us know what fantastic fundraising activity you want to do (reply to this email or call 01202 297386)

3. Let us support you by providing advice and resources to make sure your fundraiser goes with a bang! ...EASY PEASY!

Remember we will be very happy to come and deliver HIV Awareness and Prevention Training to enhance your fundraising activity!

So please make a difference.

Help raise funds to support our important work in the local community.

Help make the first ever Body Positive Day a huge success!

We look forward to hearing from you.
