First posting for over a year, but it's in aid of a good cause... Dristi Nepal offers counselling & support for HIV+ women & is in dire need of support having recently lost essential UN funding. We're trying desperately to raise money by means of a competition run by UK company Aviva. They're offering weekly prizes of £1000 for the top voted story, so PLEASE VOTE NOW! All it requires is a single mouse click and no personal details need be revealed. Just go to: http://avivatellusyourstory.co.uk/story?s=318Yes, I'm on a mission & don't usually plead for causes online, but this is important, and £1000 will go a long way in a country where the support workers themselves earn little more than £100 per month! Gill, who wrote the story and has worked with Dristi, is a good friend of mine and has pledged the prize money to the cause should she win. We're doing well, but there's close competition so EVERY VOTE COUNTS! Thanks:) |

I don't "do" LJ these days, but the following needs to be publicised: 2 neo-fascist MEPs have been elected to "represent" Britain, but NOT IN MY NAME! Could I urge everyone else to sign this petition which will be presented to the European Parliament on the first day of the new session. http://action.hopenothate.org.uk/notinmyname |
