Lakenheath Protest

Edinburgh CND is organising a delegation to Lakenheath where it’s likely that US nuclear weapons are already being stored. The protest lasts a fortnight from 14th – 26th April, however it’s most likely that we will be there from 24 – 26th. We would like to reduce the cost of travel by hiring a mini-bus or similar but we need to know numbers. If you want to know more or would be interested in joining the delegation please contact using the form on the Edinburgh CND website
