Bristol ABC Prisoner Support
Regular monthly discussion and letter writing meeting
Wednesday 11th February
7 - 9pm
Kebele Social Centre
14 Robertson Road, BS5 6JY
http://www.kebelecoop.org
Hot drinks available by donation, please bring snacks to share

We are in contact with a number of UK and international political and social prisoners, and related campaigns.
If you have an interest in supporting prisoners, and opposing the development of the prison industrial complex (PIC) in particular the new Titan prisons, and opposing the development of the surveillance state, then you are welcome to come along to find out more and get involved.

We provide stationery, stamps and campaign information - you provide the letter writing muscle.
There are a few prisoners that we are focussing on this month:
The Bristol EDO Decommisioners, Elijah Smith (VP7551) Robert Alford (VP7552). Both are being held at HMP Lewes, 1 Brighton Rd, Lewes, East Sussex, BN7 1E. See http://decommisioners.wordpress.com for more info.
The SHAC defendants, who have been given heavy sentences - see http://www.shac.net/features/prisoners.html for more details

We welcome any new information and updates about prisoner support campaigns from around the world.

We are also currently looking into supporting those detained during the ongoing Greek rebellion.

The Bristol ABC meeting is held in conjunction with the ‘Letters I Wish I’d Written’ group, who also meet monthly at Kebele.
