taken away is a simple yet fantastic idea. It's really empowering.

How does it work?
When we receive word of an individual or community in urgent need of your support - an outspoken blogger who has disappeared, a prisoner denied treatment for a life-threatening illness, women's rights campaigners harassed by the police - we will contact you by SMS (text) message with details of the case. This will be no more than once a week and texts are free to receive.
Then, wherever you are, just reply to take action instantly. For
instance, we might ask you to add your name to a petition putting
pressure on a regime to reveal the whereabouts of someone who has
'disappeared'. Find out about the people helped by Pocket Protest
We will also use SMS to update you on the campaigns you took action on, or invite you to get involved with global campaign moments. Occasionally, we may ask you to make a donation by text to support our work.
*Texts charged at standard network rate, no more than 10p. Please ask bill-payers permission. By giving us your number you agree to future communication from us by SMS. To unsubscribe, text STOP AMNESTY to 70505 at any time.
