On behalf of Dorchester and District Amnesty Group I thank everyone who contributed to our annual street collection on September 24, which raised £237.84.
In the present difficult financial climate, Dorchester residents and visitors continue to give us their generous support, without which our work on behalf of prisoners of conscience all over the world would be impossible.
Everyone who made a donation has helped to give some hope to those who are tortured, imprisoned, or threatened for their peacefully-held beliefs.
Once again, many thanks.
Christine Tempest Hon Secretary Amnesty, Dorchester and District Group Romulus Close, Dorchester
