We will meet at Westminster Meeting House, refreshments and crafts available from 1pm, for a 2pm start. There will be space for those needing a bit of quiet before we begin, but if there are lots of us we may need to gather outside.
There will be a period of worship and reflection early on, followed by short vigils at several arms company headquarters. The route is between 1 and 2 miles in total, at a gentle pace.
We will bring postcards, letting people know why we are gathering, and will be reading testimony from those affected by the arms trade. Feel free to bring your own placards and signs.
We will finish between 4:00 and 4:30pm back at Westminster. After the walk, a group of us will travel together to the vigil at the Excel in the evening.
Many thanks to London CAAT for devising the walk, and sharing the details with us.
