De La Warr lit up for AIDS awareness

THE De La Warr Pavilion will remain lit up in red until the end of December as part of an AIDS awareness campaign by the Terrence Higgins Trust in East Sussex.

The trust worked in Bexhill, Hastings and Eastbourne to mark World Aids Day - Monday, December 1 - by turning the county red. Trust volunteers are also decorating a Christmas tree at the pavilion, donated by Rother District Council.

Eastbourne's town hall clock tower and Hastings Castle have also gone red while there was an information stall in Priory Meadow, Hastings, on Sunday with the trust, together with the Youth Development Service and the sexual health clinic giving out information about sexual health and HIV.
