UNICEF UK’s short film, The Gift, is a dramatisation of a powerful poem by Simon Armitage and narrated by Gwyneth Paltrow. It draws attention to the unwanted gift of HIV that is passed from thousands of mothers every year to their babies.

UNICEF UK strives to care for children affected by  HIV/AIDS whilst campaigning for improved drug treatments for sufferers. The Unite for Children campaign was globally launched in 2005 to research the lives of infected children worldwide, and to help governments improve standards through policy changes.

Not only does he manage and play 11 a side football every week, Alister can be found throwing himself around squash courts, yoga mats and cricket wickets in a manner that is rather unbefitting a man of his considerable age and width!
