Disgrifiad

A postcard portraying with the image of a poster/banner made and designed by Thalia Campbell with help from Jan Campbell and Jan Higgs. The banner was carried on the Women's Peace March, organised by a Welsh women's group called the Women for Life on Earth (WFLOE), in a march from Cardiff to Brawdy, lasting from 27 May to 5 June 1982. The march's purpose was to oppose the nuclear weapons supposedly held at the Royal Air Force (RAF) base in Brawdy, West Wales. The women marched to Brawdy from Cardiff to challenge the storage of 96 cruise nuclear missiles, through peaceful protest, debate, and camping at the RAF Brawdy base. Women for Life on Earth was an anti-nuclear, Welsh women's peace movement. The group was originally founded by Ann Pettit and a group of friends in early 1981. The group formed due to a growing concern regarding nuclear weaponry and nuclear waste. With the threat of the Cold War, there was the lingering concern that nuclear war could destroy the planet. The group came together to peacefully protest for nuclear disarmament. Their most notable actions include organzing a peace march, walking 120 miles from Cardiff to RAF Greenham Common in 1981, as well as a march from Cardiff to RAF Brawdy, Pembrokeshire in 1982. Both marches were in opposition to the nuclear weapons stored at the RAF bases and helped to raise awareness of the issue.---------------The Chronicle Project is a community heritage project supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund and run by VCS Cymru with the aims to document the history of volunteering in Cardiff, from 1914 to 2014.
