World AIDS Week Thanks

Thanks for your support on World AIDS Day!

Starbucks - Chiverton Cross

At Starbucks Chiverton Cross in Cornwall all the partners supported the Eddystone trust by dressing from head to toe in red, some with red face paints.

We gave away samples of our special Xmas blend 2009 coffee and free samples of gingerbread latte and 'Flat white' our new beverage, in return for donations to raise awareness's of HIV and AIDS.

We had a lot of fun doing it and raised £72 pounds on the day.

We look forward to supporting Eddystone again.

All the best.
