the time to take action has finally arrived. It is exam time I realise this but please if you can spare some time tell everyone your close to about this event. We must must must let people know about it.
I am calling on all of you to gather at my flat on Thursday at 5pm so we can get a well known face to rescue Joseph Kony’s child soldiers. We will be dabbling with the force of you tube in ways you can’t imagine in order to get the doctor….yes the doctor to come and rescue us.
247 West Princes Street, Glasgow, 5pm- everyone will make their own version of the rescue plea to Mr David Tennant to ask him to come and help us with our rescue in Edinburgh on the 25th APRIL. Please if you can make it come along, we need as many faces as posisble to ensure he takes our plea seriously.

Hello Ladies and gentlemen,
We have had a fantastic year so far, and we have an amazing total raised of almost £2,500. We must however not let oursleves get complacent there is everything to play for. I think that we should aim not only to win, but to blow the competition out of the water……….(in a non-aggresive Amnesty approved way of course)
So here we go, this is for us all to post our event ideas and disuss them over the christmas holidays. Watch this space as I will be kicking it off with four….yes four event ideas.
Happy blogging, can’t wait to hear about your exciting event ideas!

Hey All
Just to let you know at the meeting this week we shall be giving you guys the first chance to grab a much coveted ticket for our Secret Policeman’s Ball. If you bring your money to the meeting on Tuesday that would be grand. We are hoping to sell out so please tell all your friends that this is a night not to miss.
All proceeds go towards G.U.A.I’S Raise-off so all of your support is much appreciated.
If you can’t make the meeting on Tuesday don’t despair, there will be ticket sellers all around Glasgow Uni and around the QMU in the next few weeks.
Hope to see you all there!

Hey guys,
Exciting news, the main focus of Amnesty International for the month of November is STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN, so get you thinking caps on because we will be focusing our campaigns events during November on this issue.
There is a petition being organised worldwide for equality for women in Iran. I propose that we create our own petition between now and the 10th December, collecting both handprints and signitures to emphasise the STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN campaign??????? What do you guys think???
The main focus during December is the DEATH PENALTY, so again our events in December will mainly focus on this campaign. Get thinking guys we should get cracking
