2nd Peace Camp bannerThe fifth annual Norwich Peace Camp & Peace Cycle event went ahead successfully as planned on Saturday 26th June.

The Peace Garden in Fusion was especially well received as were all the stands for the many organisations involved both inside and outside the Forum.

We would like to thank the Forum Trust for all their help in staging this unique event and make it known that next year’s event is already scheduled for 25th June.

We would also like to thank once again the Civic Office and this year’s Lord Mayor Councillor Tom Dylan who was one of our many visitors for their ongoing support.

We would  like to thank in addition the many visitors we have on this site and to say that we welcome any comments you may wish to leave.

 The event, which is primarily about raising awareness, also managed to raise £250 which have been distributed to the five main charities involved this year. Thanks to all those who donated and especially to all the local businesses which contributed items for the charity auction. 

Among the items we highlighted this year was the Mayors for Peace initiative. Our own petition which can be viewed under Events on this site has attracted well over 200 signatures. More info about the Mayors for Peace initiative can be found under Links on this site also.

 If you wish to cycle in future or need more info please   contact us   in advance

with Tony Benn, Red Flags, and Ian Saville’s Magic for Socialists – An annual rally is held each September in the Norfolk village of Burston to remember the Strike School. This school represented the ‘longest strike in history’ when pupils from Burston school went on strike to protest at the sacking of their teachers; Tom and Kitty Higdon. The pupils though, were not having their free-thinking teachers sacked, and went on strike, effectively creating a new school.

Among others Norwich Stop the War Coalition, Norwich Palestine Solidarity Campaign and Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament will have stalls
