Talkabout magazine is the magazine published by Positive Life NSW (previously PLWA or People Living with HIV?AIDS NSW) The following quotations were taken from this article. Julie Bates and Kathy Triffit are quoted talking about Paul Young and the start of PLWA 'The first public meeting of PLWA (NSW) was upstairs in the Trade Union Club in Surry Hills. there were more than 129 people.....Paul Young, Robert Ariss, Terry Giblett, and his sister Deborah Giblett were there. .....I think Paul Young was quite instrumental in turning around the way hospital staff treated people. Paul was loving and caring and willing to share knowlege and experience....And it required someone like that, who was a bit mad, a bit mad-cap, but who else would have been willing enough and game enough to be the first public face of AIDS. I dont know who game him the title or if he gave it to himself, but he was known as the Living Legend of HIV. He forced change on the Airlines to accept positive passengers and people working for them.....' '....He was working at the Department of Social Security. He'd been out to lunch one day, and he rang me and said "I've just come back, and there disinfecting my office, including my phone......" ".....There were a number of other dynamic people on the Committee - Terry Bell, Terry Giblett. The Carter twins (Don and Andrew) were also really important. There was also a lot of burnout, and the Committee changed...a lot of people died or moved on. ..... "...Terry Giblett and Andrew Carter formed the Quilt Project here in Australia. Paul, once again the naughty boy would call it the Doona of Death” -
