Story

We are fundraising for Just Walk Again 2020. We will be walking 1100 miles because I believe it is time to Step Out, Step Up and Stop Annexation.

Both of us had long careers in the Armed Forces and experience taught us that peace has to be built through reconciliation, equality, fairness and justice. Amos Trust works in the West Bank and Gaza with local and international peace activists and partners with grass-roots projects, to call for a just peace, reconciliation and full equal rights for all Palestinians and Israelis. Please help us to help them

The Israeli government is starting its plan to annex up to 1/3 of the Occupied Palestinian Territories of the West Bank. This is without the agreement of the Palestinian people who will once again lose their land, their rights and their freedom of movement. Annexation is illegal under international law and will lead to a permanent apartheid regime.

Governments around the world, including the UK, have already voiced their opposition. But Israel looks set to go ahead despite its claims to uphold democracy and the rule of law.

So we are joining Amos Trust in walking again to draw attention to yet another injustice against the Palestinian people. Together were going to walk 3,000 miles in our local areas and between us we will cover the distance from London to Jerusalem.
