From Martin Levy

The annual ‘Volunteers for Liberty’ event, to commemorate the volunteers from the North East who gave their lives fighting in the International Brigade in Spain, will be held at 2 pm on Sunday 29 October at the memorial plaque in the grounds of Newcastle Civic Centre.

Speakers will include author Alex Clifford and representatives from the Communist Parties of Britain and Spain.  There will also be the reading of the names of those who sacrificed their lives, and the laying of wreaths.

While the event is organised by the Communist Party of Britain, all who wish to keep the memory of these volunteers alive are welcome.

Yours in solidarity

Martin Levy
