World AIDS day

On the 1st we did a balloon launch in Darlington town centre.. it was raining and soooooooo cold! there were quite a few people intrested in what we were doing and if the weather had been better we'd have had a great crowd. We were all there handing out our red ribbons.. was a great laugh and the balloons looked great!

Round 2 next year?? :P

Five Minute Lesotho

Here's our first try at editing the material from Lesotho.

This week..

We've been busy this week. On Wednesday we took part in the health roadshow at the QE sixth form.. was loads of fun and got to talk to loads of people, hopefully we have made some friends in GAD (Gay Advice Darlington) they were all really cool!

Tonight we did out first prestentation to our local community partnerships.. however was a bit of a disapointing turnout but was a good night :)

As well as that we have been organising some events for World Aids Day on December 1st we are hoping to do a balloon launch in the town center which will be immense if we get chance to do it!
