 Dear Colleagues,

 

Please find attached the latest Mayors for Peace Briefing covering the recent 11th General Conference held in Nagasaki (7-10 August) and the 80th anniversary Peace Ceremonies held in Hiroshima (6 August) and Nagasaki (9 August). The Lord Mayor of Manchester Cllr Carmine Grimshaw and I were honoured to attend and participate in these moving and historic events.

I have also attached notice of a future Peace History Conference to be held at my alma mater, the University of Bradford.

 

With best wishes and in peace,
