Newcastle march for Baby P

Friday, November 28th, 2008

New campaign march on 12th April … Details on the childmarch forum

details for 13th december

everyone needs to meet up between 11 and 11:30 at ceremonial way, civic centre. we will be marching down northumberland street, pilgrim street, market street n ending on the blue carpet outside of the laing art gallery. we will be holding a minutes silence at 12:10 followed by a balloon release, at the moment we are unsure of the amount of balloons as we have to get permission of the civil aviation authority. we are not sure as yet what will be happening after that as we are still in talks with speakers, various organisations and are hoping a member of the clergy will come and say prayers. we will keep you updated.

we need at least 20 people to volunteer to be stewards on the day, they will still be part of the march but will be walking at the sides, so nobody who has small children to look after, also we need a lend of at least 20 high visibility jackets or vests if anyone can help please get in touch. thanks x

can i remind everyone not to mention names of the parents or baby p, even though most of us now know these they still are legally not allowed to be named. this, as far as i know, is in place until the 15th december when they are back at court for sentancing. any posts containing these will have to be deleted otherwise the group could be closed down. thank you x
