Story

<p><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">Hi my name is Jay Hughes and I have been a service user at Positive East (formally The Globe Centre) for many years even before it&nbsp;was called the Globe Centre when we were in Bricklane. I have used many services in those years, Counselling, Acupuncture, Massage, and the wonderful food provided by Nigel and his team. I have also volunteered. I have enjoyed many barbeques over the summer months and been involved in fundraising efforts over the years.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">I have decided to do the parachute jump in a further effort to raise much needed funds; I will be jumping from 10,000 feet on the 30<sup>th</sup> July 2011 in Peterborough.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; text-align: justify;"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;" lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: small;">Please sponsor me </span></span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana;" lang="EN-US">and help Positive East to continue supporting individuals and communities affected by HIV.
