About me

Location	Ilkley, Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Introduction	There are many local Amnesty International groups throughout Britain. The Wharfedale group started life as the Ilkley group but changed its name as new members from Otley and other areas joined. Local groups exist to raise awareness of human rights issues at local events; to give talks to schools or other organisations on the work of Amnesty International; to write letters, faxes and emails on behalf of prisoners of conscience; to raise funds and attract new members to Amnesty International. We are fortunate to have many supporters who help with the Flag Days or organise special fund raising events such as coffee mornings or concerts featuring local bands and performers.
