Lunch Positive said on social media: "We were able to celebrate with everyone the fantastic contributions of our brilliant volunteers and the positive impact of our work on the lives of people living with HIV. We were able to thank all of our amazing supporters, you are truly amazing, and every penny you raise goes directly to helping people, 52 weeks a year. 

"Our motto at Lunch Positive is 'all about community!' and this afternoon was certainly a shining example of that! It was togetherness and supportiveness at its best! 

"Sending our love and sincerest thanks to everyone who supports Lunch Positive. You help us make a massive difference, and you help change lives. Thank you."
