Members of the Amnesty QUB and Youth groups, Consortium staff, and members took to the streets of Belfast on Saturday 20th February to collect more signatures for the ‘Make our Bill of Rights Strong’ campaign.

Weather conditions were more than chilly but the volunteers braved the elements and collected an impressive 300 signatures from shoppers and passers-by.

Following the collection, Lynda Sullivan from the Consoritum had this to say, “It was freezing cold out here to day but the members and Amnesty volunteers have been in high spirits and have been great at collecting the signatures. We have had a lot of interest from the public wanting further information which has been a great encouragement. I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who helped out.”
