On 16 August the Minehead Group of Amnesty International hosted a tea party in a member’s garden in Carhampton. Lots of people came along to enjoy the garden, tea and cake, and chatting with friends. Amnesty-themed games and a quiz kept people busy and letters were signed about the treatment of women in Afghanistan. The weather was perfect and £420 was raised to help fund Amnesty’s research, reports and campaigns about human rights abuses around the world. 

As it's been a busy summer we are having a break in September but will be joining a Southwest Regional Network webinar on Thursday 16 October at 1930. More details on how to join to follow. In November and December we are planning events around the 2025 Write for Rights campaign.
