Calling all those in Nottingham who want to get clued up about the G8 coming to the UK next year - this is your chance! The G8 Roadshow 'Trapese' comes to the Sumac Social Centre in Forest Fields tomorrow. From 4-6pm, there will be workshops, and from 8-11pm fun, including local band 'The Darlings.' Find out about whats wrong with the G8, how people have protested in the past,and about protests are planned for next year.

We hope a local action group against the G8 will form from this event - so if you want to get involved - come along!

The event is held in the Sumac Bar (245 Gladstone St, Forest Fields, Nottingham 0845 458 9595). The Sumac Bar is the Forest Fields Social club, and is a private members bar, however new members and guests are welcome.
