Mothers, kids invited to occupy half-term

A group of mothers from Cambridge have issued an invitation to every mother in the UK to join them at Occupy London Stock Exchange on Wednesday 26th October 2011.

#OccupyLSX will welcome Occupy Half Term at noon this Wednesday.

Parents and children are invited to meet members of the occupation, as well as supporting groups including Anonymous (UK) and Global Women’s Strike.

Through a special workshop, put together by OccupyLSX’s Tent City University, children will have the chance to practice direct democracy in an open and inclusive space.

There will also be a short dance and a procession back to Liverpool Street Station at 2.45pm, for those taking the train from London back to Cambridge.

Started by a mum with a mortgage who is sympathetic to Occupy London, Occupy Half Term has evolved into an event for everyone who is curious and who would like first-hand information about the London occupations – now including the site near the London Stock Exchange and the new site opened this Saturday at Finsbury Square.

More information can be found at the facebook group Occupy Half Term and at the blog http://www.libertyandowain.blogspot.com/
