...Of us stood up against Poverty!

Over the past month there has been a number of protests against Poverty and I have tried to attend as many as possible.

I walked out of work experiance (with permission lol) on the 14th September to join Roz, Emma, Graeme and Carl in a drum for trade justice march to Whitehall.

Me, Victoria, Sarah and Roz took to the streets of Bricklane on Sunday 15th October to stand up against poverty. Guess what! So did 23,542,610 other people all across the globe.

And finally on Tuesday, to mark the end of a month long campaign against poverty, Me, Roz and Josh took to the streets of Westminster in White overalls alongside Timmy and Geoffrey (MPH sign and Banana). We were later joined by Sarah and we all headed to protest outside Downing Street. After eventually getting told to leave by the police because we didn't have a license, we decided to walk around Westminster protesting seeing as we didn't need a license for that. We made our mark that day! And I took a day off school! Come on, in the name of social justice!

Sarah, Victoria and Me!
