What is the role of the Cardiff group of Amnesty International?

As an affiliated group of the UK Section of Amnesty (AIUK), we support the worldwide organisation through:

  • Monthly meetings with speakers, campaign updates, workshops and other activities - for details of forthcoming meetings see our diary page;
  • Campaigning, letter writing, and raising the profile of human rights and the work of Amnesty - for details see the group's campaigns page.
  • Fundraising - recent events have included our annual sponsored walk, street collections, concerts, stalls and sales of cards and t-shirts.

If you are interested in helping with any of these please e-mail us.


When and where does the group meet?

The group meets on the second Monday of the month at 7.30pm at the Quaker Meeting House on Charles Street.  This is in Cardiff City Centre, just off Queen Street (the side street between Marks & Spencer and Burger King).  We are a mixture of ages and backgrounds and new members are always welcome.

We also hold a planning meeting on the fouth Monday of the month at 7.30pm in the bar of Chapter Arts Centre.

A diary of our forthcoming meetings can be found on diary page.
