Families should not have to beg to fund their fights for justice, yet we are now left with a mountainous debt. Please do continue to share and donate if you are able.

We continue to need to ask for donations and support to cover the legal costs of Anu's inquest, as we have still not met our target. Please consider sharing this page link or donating if you are able - crowdjustice.com/case/justice-f…

We’ve had almost no sign-ups for the last few days. Without consistent sign-ups, donations, and collective support this project can’t continue. If you’re unable to sign up for a workshop please share with a friend or volunteer to do some outreach for us! workshops4gaza.com/workshops

In Gaza, the collective shame of the century continues unabated and unstopped, in defiance of every norm of international law and morale. The Palestinians, exhausted by relentless attacks on their bodies and souls are abandoned to their tormentors. Shocking images of summary…

Many of you may remember my family’s story. As the inquest into my cousin brother’s tragic death finally approaches, we are facing mounting financial pressure and little prospect of Legal Aid. Please help by sharing and donating if you can. #Justice4Anugrah

Dear friends, family & supporters - our family are fundraising to cover our legal costs at the inquest into our beloved Anu's death, taking place in just 6 weeks. We don't have long to raise a staggering £60k, & so we are calling on you to please share🙏 crowdjustice.com/case/justice-f…



A reminder that I'll be hosting a conversation on 25 September as part of @waywordabdn on the role of creative practice in response to climate change, talking about sound & performance art, poetry, and more. Get your free tickets here! ticketsource.co.uk/whats-on/kings…
