Still time to get those RED SCARVES to us before Friday 28th 😀

World AIDS Day is Dec 1st and we are looking for donations of red scarves for our Red Scarf awareness campaign.
The Red Scarf mirrors the iconic HIV/AIDS awareness ribbon, a powerful emblem of compassion.
Every Red Scarf is tagged with information about HIV and shared with our community to be worn as symbols of solidarity, support, and the fight against stigma.

By knitting, donating, or wearing a red scarf, you’re joining a global movement of compassion and awareness.

Scarf Specifications
To ensure consistency and durability, please follow these guidelines:
Material: Durable yarn (no cotton)
Colour: Bright fire-engine red or a shade matching the AIDS ribbon
Size: 3 to 5 feet long × 6 inches wide.
They can be dropped off at our Jail Street office.

Thank you
