Big names in music and the peace movement are coming together to raise money for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament at The Legion, Old Street, on Thursday 7th October. Damon Albarn will be making a guest appearance and doing a DJ set. There will also be an Audio Visual set from Chris Allen of the spectacular Light Surgeons who made an incredible impact at the last Protest and Survive event back in May. DJ Erol Alkan will also be doing a set.

As well as music there will be speakers from the peace and anti-war movement. Speakers include Bruce Kent, Kate Hudson, Chair of CND and Jeremy Corbyn MP.

The event will raise money for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and will support the 'Countdown to Hiroshima' campaign. This is a year-long campaign in the run up to the 60th anniversary of the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. The event will raise awareness of Government policy on nuclear weapons which CND considers to be hypocritical and dangerous.
