Remembrance...

(United 4 Justice)

Information, displays, stands, films, live music and poetry to remember our lost loved ones

4WardEver UK in association with the Mikey Powell Campaign, Habib Ullah Campaign and Leicester Civil Rights Movement are presenting this major event on 15th May 2010 taking place at The Highfields Centre in Leicester.

 

It has been organised to mark what would have been Mikey Powell's 45th birthday, and to showcase other families that have suffered the loss of a loved one in police, prison or psychiatric custody. The event will also pay tribute to Tony Egbuna Ford and others facing capital punishment in the United States.

We invite custody death and human rights campaigners, artistes, booksellers, radical filmmakers and civil rights groups to take up one of our limited stands on the day.

There is no charge to have a stand but we would welcome donations.

All proceeds of this event will be passed on to affected families involved in the planning and participation of this event.

4WardEver UK is a community collective providing news and information sharing services for our readers and members.

We support the call for police, penal and mental health reforms in the UK and internationally.

The 4WardEver UK website was developed and launched in 2005 by the cousin of Mikey Powell, Tippa Naphtali. It has grown considerably and now has more than 1,800+ visitors a day from around the world.

We support work for police, penal and mental health reforms in the UK and internationally. This is done through our website, other online resources, the organisation of and participation in events for justice, and direct support of families through our various services and resources.

4WardEver UK is dedicated to the memory of Mikey Powell, and continues to work with Mikey’s and other families and campaign groups across the country and abroad in giving exposure to issues and causes.

Funds are raised to support our work through advertising, donations from families and friends, some of 4WardEver UK’s services, Tippa’s personal investments, and through part of the proceeds from a partner agency, First Stop Web Design.

We will also be organising a series of film screenings, music, arts and other events in conjunction with other campaign and reform groups from home and abroad.
