Dorchester and District Amnesty Group will not be holding their usual charitable Tree of Hope event this year, but members will still be sending their messages of support to prisoners of conscience and human rights defenders around the world.

Anyone who would like to send a non-political and non-religious card to an individual (not a Christmas card, please) can find more information and helpful advice at amnesty.org.uk/writefor-rights
