There will also be Live acoustic music from the Waverton Collective (beautiful folky stuff)and entertainment from Chloe Poems. Suggested donation for this event is £8 and all proceeds will go to NCADC.

A bit of Background!
NCADC (the National Coalition for Anti-Deportation Campaigns) has gone bust as all its funding has come to an end.
NCADC is not your average NGO, it is the only Non Government Organization with a mandate to oppose deportations. Many, many hundreds if not thousands of ‘failed asylum seekers’ who were facing deportation now live legally in the UK because NCADC provided them with the knowledge to campaign against their deportation.
The NCADC website has forms to download for donating - either a one-off gift or a regular standing order. For more info or to ownload a standing order or one-off donation form go to http://www.ncadc.org.uk/archives/newszin67/bust.html
Once before in 2002, when in crisis after The Daily Mail publicly attacked NCADC and the Community Fund suspended their grant, NCADC appealed to its supporters for help. Generous donations carried them through until their Community Fund grant came through. This time its more serious. We need your help.
If you intended to set up a standing order DO IT TODAY!
They are aiming to get 2000 standing orders for 10 pounds a month, lesser amounts are of course more than welcomed, as are larger amounts.
