Let everyone know and remind and invite people you haven’t seen in a while. There will be an open mic during the meal if anyone would like to play some music. Here’s how to find us.
Can you help with placing banners?
This is a good way to help with G7 if you’re unable to travel or want something to do right away. Help is needed by Val to make and place banners around the local area, so please get in touch if you can help. We’ll be hanging banners in key road locations ready for G7 on Thursday 10 June (in the morning). Please contact me or reach out to Val if you can help.
Lighting the local beacons
Can you help with lighting the local beacons in Gloucestershire on the eve of G7? (10 June). It’s another great thing to do if you’re not travelling to Cornwall. Take a look at this beacons of hope document if you’re interested in getting involved.
Can you help XR doctors in Cornwall?
DoctorsXR are going to be staging a mock inquest at G7 to identify the cause of global pandemics – corpse actors and health care professionals needed. Corpses will be covered in white sheets as in the banner image above. Join this Whatsapp group if you’re interested in taking part in this powerful action.
