HIV charity facing 20,000 pound debt

BBC News - August 18, 2006


A charity which raises awareness about HIV and Aids in Jersey ended 2005 with a deficit of almost 20,000 pounds, its annual report has revealed.

Acet said it was facing an ever-increasing amount of work and needed help from existing financial supporters and new sources of funding.

The States also recently withdrew its annual grant of 87,000 pounds.

But Acet said help from a charitable trust would keep it going for the foreseeable future.

The annual report said the charity had secured funding for the rest of 2006 and the early part of 2007.
