Manchester NO2ID / Open Rights Group Joint Street Stall

Date: 
Sat, 01/06/2013 - 1:00pm - 3:00pm

on Saturday 1St June 2013 we will be running a street stall in our usual place in St. Ann's Square, Manchester.

In a change to our usual format, we have invited Open Rights Group Manchester to come along and run a joint street stall with us. The aim is to pool our resources to jointly promote both the NO2ID and ORG campaigns, so we will be handing out literature from both our groups.

As usual everyone is welcome to come along to help out, or just say hello.
