We want to show our solidarity with farmers, landworkers and food producers across the world who are suffering the impacts of these deadly chemicals – namely Paraquat which is manufactured at the Huddersfield factory.
We’d love you to join us – and bring your voices, banners and your tools!
⚠️ Want to join us?
We’ll be meeting at 11am on the morning of Saturday 7th in the car park of the KAL – Leeds Road Sports Complex opposite the Syngenta factory in Huddersfield, ready for the demo at 12.
?? What to bring?
Please bring yourself, a friend, and any farm tools/ wheelbarrows/ growing gear that you can manage! We basically need the media to be able to see that we’re farmers and landworkers.
We’ll also be staying for a ‘what’s next?’ picnic and brainstorming session after the demo between 1.30-3.00pm so please bring lunch if you want to stick around for that (location TBC – probably a nearby park).
? Can’t come?
Don’t forget to write t the UK Government using our template letter and online letter-writing platform.
Please note that this will be a peaceful demonstration, with the main aim being to capture media and press attention. We don’t plan on causing any serious disruption or taking any unnecessary risks.
