ACTION
- We are inviting supporters to join us in Alice Springs – 10-24th November – come on a road trip 🙂 We would love to meet you!
- We are developing a program so that people can learn about Pine Gap, the Peace Movement, Creative Activism – Non-Violent Direct Action while we are in Alice
- We could do with people to wave banners, take photographs, share live on social media, pitch tents, find housesits, change tyres, make cups of tea 🙂
- If you are in Alice Springs – support us by encouraging local involvement and making links. Contact Margaret@cairnspeacebypeace.org
We are open to suggestions, ideas are most welcome.
We are happy to talk through with you what your skills are and what skills you would like to gain. e.g. if you don’t normally use twitter we can support you. You might just start with retweeting, graduate to tweeting with a comment, then to producing your own tweets. Every little bit helps
