Fundraising

Alas! Glastonbury is cancelled this year. We can only assume the organisers felt the festival could not go on without our own itinerant arch-hippy Vernon Hadley.

The serious side to this is that we usually raise getting on for £33,000 towards campaigns at Glastonbury by running the lock-ups. So we need to think of alternative sources of funding.

Hence we will be having a street collection in the city centre on 2nd June. Volunteers for shaking tins and smiling lots are warmly invited. We will hopefully organise something social, and perhaps edible, after this event, to be confirmed later. More information in the next Action Briefing.

Further suggestions for alternative sources of

funds would also be extremely welcome!
