Dorchester and District Amnesty Group would like to thank everyone who contributed so generously to our annual street collection on October 11.

The £213.80 raised will support our campaigning work on behalf of people worldwide who have been imprisoned, threatened or tortured for their peacefully-held beliefs.

Anyone who would like to know more about what we do is invited to sign a greetings card to a prisoner of conscience at our Tree of Hope event in Cornhill, Dorchester on Saturday, December 13. We hope to see you there!

Christine Tempest (Hon. Sec.)

Dorchester
