Colin Bentley is a supporter of Lunch Positive, the HIV charity who provide a healthly meal for people who are positive every Friday at the Dorset Gardens Methodist Church in Kemptown. He is running both the Brighton Half and Full Marathons to raise funds for the charity in 2014.
Colin took up running to improve his health and fitness and now wants to use this to help this frontline HIV charity carry on with their essential service to positive people.
Colin said:
“The Brighton half and full marathons 2014 are not far away and I will be running both for Lunch Positive which is one of the smallest charities and gives some of the most needed help. It provides a safe place for positive people to get together, share their experiences and gain support, whilst providing a nutritious lunch for next to nothing. I think this is a much needed service and want to raise as much as I can to help them maintain their great service.”
Gary Pargeter, Volunteer Project Manager, added:
“We’re incredibly grateful to Colin for his support – and this is the first time we have had anyone run in both marathons for us – it’s very exciting! Please support him as much as you can to recognise his efforts and to raise as much as possible to help provide our service to a growing number of people with HIV.”
