A day to refine plans against the return of genetically engineered crops
at the beautiful Hawkwood Nursery in Walthamstow, one of London’s most
spectacular community growing projects.

For directions see here: http://www.organiclea.org.uk/contact-us/

The agenda will include:

1) A brief overview on current circumstances for beginners

2) Introductions to
- Campaigning on British trial sites- potatoes and the new wheat

- Takeaway the GM oil – meet the new campaign materials for helping get
your local chippie GM free

- GM oil in supermarkets – background on the community impacts of
Roundup Ready Soya in South America, and dreaming up stunts to get it back
off the shelves again

- Research into health impacts and lobbying

-  GM free zone mapping – creating an up to date graphic database for the
farmers and the public to register their growing sites as GM free
zones

3) Planning sessions on those areas where there’s most enthusiasm

4) Affinity group training to help us build a network of autonomous groups
ready for action

If you have any proposals for additional campaign ideas we’d really
welcome them before the 10th November. Please send a 100 word outline and
your phone number to info@stopgm.org.uk

Please remember that, as this is a public meeting, it would be wise not to
discuss any plans that are reliant on a level of surprise to be effective.

Bring warm clothes and sturdy footwear if you’d like to go exploring.

A fine vegan organic lunch will be provided for donations.

If you could register your intention to attend by replying to this email
we can make sure there’s enough to go round.

Basic overnight accommodation can be made available for those that need
it; please let us know by the 10th of November if you’ll be requiring it.
