There are still a few spaces left for tonight's fundraiser for Medical Aid for Palestinians. I hope everyone who wants to will be able to come, but there are restrictions on space, so please email or text me (details below) to check if possible. Otherwise, please try to be there by 1900.
There are a couple of last minute changes. Our very own Jim Radford (original Honor Oak Park newsletter editor) will now be singing, and although Fathieh Saudi will not now be able to appear in person due to ill-health, her poems will be read by others accompanied by South African pianist Mervyn Africa in a surprise appearance.
Hope to see you there
Michael Coulston

We welcome donations in support of this event, particularly if you are not able to come. Because MAP is a registered charity, they can reclaim tax on donations from UK taxpayers. (Tax cannot be reclaimed on ticket sales.) We have set up a JustGiving page at https://www.justgiving.com/Lewisham-Stop-the-War2/. Please use this page to donate.
