g2 convergence space- payne house, earl street ec2a 2al

This space is now being squatted as a convergence centre, the space is non-affiliated and welcomes all activist groups (as long as they agree to the 'safer spaces' policy and respect the ideals of the space).

We will be hosting a series of workshops, banner making, film nights, info space, cafe and sleeping space. There is enough space for meetings we held, and enough space to house many, many people. However bring your own sleeping materials and comforts. We will try and help, but be prepared to be self-sufficient. Friendly animals are welcome, but there is also one animal-free floor.

To reduce tension between us and the police at this sensitive time, the space is a drug- and alcohol-free centre, with one or two smoking rooms. We are also operating under a camera-free zone policy. Please be respectful and ask before taking photographs. No no no journalists allowed on site.

We hope to be secure and the police will keep their distance, but as unpredictable as they are we cannot guarantee this. For this place to survive and strive, donations are very welcome. Be resourceful, be creative.
