Saturday 7th July - Live Earth

Live Earth was a monumental music event to combat the climate crisis. Live Earth's 24 hours of music across 7 continents was a call to action and the solutions needed to answer the call.

Sunday 1st July - Gatley Festival

Thanks to Kate, Chris, Michael and Fliss for their help. It was a pity the windy and extremely wet weather on the day prevented us from deploying our full range of information. Thanks to all those who visited our stall to support and help us with our campaigns e.g. against The Planning White Paper.

Saturday 2nd June - The World Can't Wait

As the clock ticks, people's lives are lost. The World Can't Wait coalition are telling the rich countries that the World can't wait. They must deliver on their promises and take decisive action against poverty and climate catastrophe. Chris thought Lambeth Bridge on the River Thames in London was 'alarmingly' noisy at 2pm. Lets hope our Prime Minister goes off to the G8 with a message ringing in his ears:

       Altogether now    "G8;   The World Can't Wait"

...but after the G8 meeting, it looks like it is going to have to wait a bit longer.
