Support Amnesty's greetings card campaign
Human rights campaigners want people in Luton to send messages to those unjustly imprisoned abroad this Christmas.
The Amnesty International greetings card campaign sends cards to people around the world who have suffered human rights abuses.
On Saturday (December 12) Luton and District Amnesty activists will be at a stall outside BHS in George Street from 10am, with cards at the ready for Luton Christmas shoppers to send messages of hope across the world.
The charity says the personalised messages mean a great deal to people such as legal adviser Chen Guangcheng, currently in prison in China.
He was jailed for more than four years for drawing attention to an illegal campaign of forced abortion and sterilisation affecting thousands of women in the country's Shandong province.
