Description

Our Mission Statement:

1. To encourage people from all over the world to take part in a peaceful demonstration to bring an end to the cycle of violence and begin a cycle of peace in the Middle East.

2. To raise public awareness of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian land and how it affects the lives of the people in the region, and to call for an end to this occupation as stipulated in United Nations Resolution 242.

3. To show solidarity with those who continue to live in fear and turmoil as a result of the occupation and in particular, to call for justice for the Palestinian people as being the only way to a lasting peace for all people in Israel and Palestine.


What are the realities of Israel’s occupation of Palestine?

Mass detentions, indiscriminate killings, denial of food, water and fuel supplies, roadblocks, checkpoints, destruction of schools, roads and infrastructure, imprisonment behind an illegal wall, theft of land and the demolition of 18,000 Palestinian homes.

“Before the eyes of the world, the Palestinian civilian population is scrambling to survive” - The UN Special Co-ordinator on the Middle East Peace Process

The Palestinian people need urgent help.
The next Peace Cycle will raise funds for charities working to relieve hardship in the occupied territories.
Peace Cyclists will then travel straight to Jordan to visit Palestinian refugee camps. We will then go on to Nazareth and Haifa before beginning a cycle tour of the Occupied West Bank to include Jenin, Tulkarem, Nablus, Ramallah, Bil'in, Bethlehem, Hebron, Jericho and Jerusalem.

The Peace Cycle will then take part in a mass event at the European Parliament and meet with MEPs to demand and end to this injustice.


We believe the only way to achieve security and peace for all people in Israel and Palestine is for the occupation to end, and for the Palestinian people to be allowed to live freely and peacefully in a viable and independent Palestinian state.
