Speaker: Bruce Kent, Vice-Chair, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament

"HIROSHIMA & THE ATOMIC BOMB"
A photographic exhibition in memory of 300,000 Atomic bomb victims
Friday 11th - Thursday 17th November

It is now public that the government is contemplating a replacement for Trident. A replacement would contravene our commitment to the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and send out the worst possible signal to the rest of the world. The move would cost an estimated £15bn: money which would be better spent on defeating poverty, and providing for employment, education and health.

The way to ensure that nuclear weapons are never used again is to get rid of them. The nuclear powers must disarm, to secure a future for humanity. Come and join the debate

The Exhibition: “HIROSHIMA & THE ATOMIC BOMB” will open from Friday 11th November until Thursday 17th November, at the Friends Meeting House, Friarn Street, Bridgwater

Times: Weekdays 7-9pm; Saturday 11-4pm; Daytime visits by appointment ( please ring 01278 457742)

60 years after the Allied destruction of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, in August 1945, we present a photographic reminder of the horrors which the development and use of atomic weapons leashed upon the world. The photographs are from the collection of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, and the exhibition is on loan from Bradford Peace Museum
