The Body Shop on North Street in Brighton is holding a fundraiser for Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) on Saturday 18th April. Free make overs, skin consultations, hand massages and a chance to win Body Shop goodies will be on offer all day at the store.

The Body Shop is hoping the day will help raise funds for THT which provides vital services to people in Brighton and Hove and across Sussex. The store is asking shoppers to make a donation to THT in return for an indulgent hand massage or make over.

Mark Cull, Health Promotion Co-ordinator for THT in Sussex said:

" It's fantastic that the Body Shop has offered to hold this fundraiser for us. We hope you'll get involved by treating yourself to a make over, or get pampered with a relaxing hand massage. In return for a small donation it's a really easy way to support you local charity."

Staff and volunteers from THT will be in the store from 11am – 3pm to answer any questions about HIV and sexual health. They can also give shoppers information about the wide range of services that THT offers locally, including counselling, support groups and HIV testing.
