'Write for Rights' day on Saturday 7 December
Amnesty International’s movement of ten million celebrates the world’s biggest human rights event on Human Rights Day on 10 December. New Zealanders will take action to stand up for freedom, justice and equality through its 'Write for Rights' day on Saturday 7 December.
Date: Saturday 7 December
Time 2.00 - 4.30pm
Venue: Friends Meeting House, 30 Nile St, Nelson.
Our collective action pressures authorities around the world to bring those responsible for human rights abuses to justice, and to free people wrongfully imprisoned. Here in Nelson our annual gathering to write letters and send messages of support to victims of human rights abuses around the world will take place at the Friends Meeting House on Saturday 7 December.
Please bring a small contribution for a shared afternoon tea. Tea and coffee will be provided.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
