On behalf of Shoosmiths PROUD, I’m joining our friends at HSBC Pride in order to run and raise money for the 2025 World AIDS Day RED RUN in support of Positive East!

For those that know me you will know how vanishingly rare it is for me to run for anything other than a train. Despite (or perhaps because I used to do) cross country in secondary school at Dubai College (yes, running in THAT heat, across sand dunes) distance running is an activity that I genuinely loathe.

Nevertheless, for such a worthy cause I am setting aside my distaste and showing up to represent and raise some much needed £££.

To that end, Positive East has been at the forefront of HIV care for over 30 years, providing vital support to thousands living with HIV.

Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference. So please consider donating to my page and help Positive East continue their life-changing work.
