National Animal Rights Spring Gathering

Pat | 28.12.2009 00:01 | Animal Liberation

A weekend of networking, workshops, discussions, actions and social activities.
Friday 12th to Sunday 14th March.
Nottingham




Each year the animal rights movement holds a 'summer gathering' where grass roots campaigners from all over the UK (and further afield) come together to share skills, knowledge and enthusiasm for grass-roots campaigns for animals.

Following the success of the 2009 summer gathering it was agreed that a second gathering in the winter/spring would be valued.

This is to be held in March, but there will be a planning meeting on Sunday January 10th at the Sumac Centre in Nottingham, for anyone interested in helping with the organising of the Gathering, either in a practical way or with an input into the workshop program.

An interesting aspect of the Spring Gathering in March will be opportunity to put into practice the actions discussed in the workshop sessions, with a day of campaigning, stunts, protests and education on many different animal rights issues.

So come along on Sunday January 10th, and again in March, to help put theory into practice, to "get off the internet and onto the streets".

In due course details will be on the  http://www.argathering.org.uk/ website, but for now check the Animal Rights Calendar:  http://www.veggies.org.uk/arc.php
