For immediate release: 22 August 2003
CND is working with various communities and grassroots organisations to bring together a culturally engaging positive event – a celebration of life.
Saturday the 15th of February 2003 brought a new era in the British Peace Movement. CND helped organise the biggest ever demonstration in the history of the UK, where over two million people across the UK marched for peace – the peace movement was re-born.
This party, occurring 3 days and two years after the tragic events in the USA, is an opportunity for people to get together for peace showing community spirit is alive and people can bring about change. The event is a growth opportunity designed to bring people on board an exciting peace experience – a vision for the future.
Carol Naughton, CND Chair said, “This positive statement is our affirmation in a belief of global peace, designed to show international leaders positive action and a movement of peace.”
