60 Faces: Ellie Kinney -

Ellie Kinney is co-convenor of Youth and Student CND and has been at the forefront of the recent re-launch in activity from the section. She set up the Goldsmiths CND group.

‘I first got involved with CND after attending a protest against austerity,’ Ellie told us. ‘I was really quite ignorant of how much money the government was wasting on nuclear weapons, and getting involved with CND really opened my eyes to this.

‘But the global political landscape is so rapidly developing that nuclear weapons are more than just a redundant waste of money- they are a threat to both current and future generations and this needs to change.’

What is 60 faces of CND?
2018 is the 60th anniversary of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

Founded in 1958 at the height of the Cold War, CND has been a powerful collective voice against the dangers of nuclear weapons.

CND’s greatest strength has always been its members.
Incredible people have shaped our history,
our present and will continue to inspire in the future.

Here we take a look at 60 Faces of CND,
60 people who represent all the millions of people
who have campaigned for nuclear disarmament over the decades
and have made our organisation so remarkable.
