It was wonderful to come together on 1st March to celebrate our group’s 50th Birthday! We are proud to be one of the longest continuously running local Amnesty groups.

It was lovely to see so many past members & friends whilst building relationships with our newer members.

We spent time remembering campaigns we’ve were involved in, events we organised, demos we waved flags at, actions we took and, perhaps most powerfully, individuals we wrote to, campaigned for and the few we actually met upon their freedom.

We all hope Amnesty is not needed - however whilst people lose their freedoms and human rights, we will be here to shine a light on injustice.
