STAND-UP FOR PEACE!
Do your bit for the kids caught up in the Israeli/Palestinian conflict by coming along to Children of Peace's truly special evening of stand-up comedy at the Cockpit Theatre in London on Saturday, May 23rd.
All the money raised goes towards schemes that specifically bring Palestinian and Israeli kids together, in the hope that they will build friendships that will put an end to conflict in the future. You can see details of the work we do at http://www.childrenofpeace.org.uk.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT GIFT AID
Unfortunately, because this is a ticketed event, we cannot claim gift aid on the ticket revenue, so when you are asked: “Are you donating in return for a ticket to an event/raffle/auction?", you must answer "Yes".
There are no printed tickets, your name will be added to the reservation list and checked off at the door on the night - so ensure that you leave your full name in the 'Display Name' box. If you are buying more than one ticket, we will put "plus one/two", etc, by your name on the reservation list.
There are only 180 seats, so book yours today!
