We provide briefing sheets and workshops by activists with first hand experience of the criminal and civil justice systems in Britain. We are not laywers or solicitors although we consult with them.

Peace Groups

Network of Oxford Women for Justice and Peace
We are a group of Oxford women, experienced peace campaigners, who have come together to oppose the use of military action or threats of military action which terrorise the world's populations and endanger peace and reconciliation.
We will participate in events allied to justice and peace campaigns and develop methods to respond quickly to critical issues. We are particularly keen to reach out to women's groups around the world. We will support and work with those committed to peace and justice in Britain and throughout the world to oppose war and its terrible consequences through campaigning and education.
We call for the world's resources and advances in science and technology to be used for the benefit of all the people on our planet, instead of for military confrontations.
