Candle Vigil for Gaza

Thursday 8th January at 7pm - Bargate, Southampton

We would like to invite all those who are concerned about the Israeli state attacks on Gaza in what the United Nations describes as 'the imminent humanitarian catastrophe' to a Candle Lit Vigil at Bargate on Thursday 8th January at 7pm. We plan to observe a 30-minutes silent tribute to the dead, injured and bereaved people of Gaza after bell ringing.

Please bring candles, poems, reflections / cakes and hot drinks to share with any passersby and ourselves.

As well as anything else you think might be appropriate in keeping with a respectful and peaceful vigil.

This event will take place whatever developments occur in the situation in Gaza.
