Join us for the non-violent blockade of Hinkley Point nuclear power station in Somerset when hundreds of campaigners will be peacefully blockading access to the site. Campaigners are wanted who will risk arrest by remaining in the road, but there are many other ways you can attend and support the blockade without risking arrest yourself.
The blockade is the first action of ‘Stop New Nuclear’ - an alliance of local and nation groups opposed to nuclear new build which has been founded by the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Stop Nuclear Power Network UK, Kick Nuclear, South West Against Nuclear, Shutdown Sizewell, Sizewell Blockaders, Trident Ploughshares and Stop Hinkley. Groups in different areas of the UK are already mobilising campaigners to travel to the protest.
Date and time: 7 am, Monday 3rd October. Throughout the weekend training sessions will be run to facilitate a safe and peaceful protest where disruption to the local community is kept to a minimum. Local events are planned in the Bridgwater area in the days running-up to the blockade.
