Saturday 18th September, 1pm
Old Palace Yard, Westminster, London.
On 18th September millions of people across the world will join rallies, sign petitions and participate in special events to ‘Make a noise for the Millennium Development Goals’.
CARE will be joining other campaigners and making a noise at 1pm outside the Place of Westminster in London, as part of Stand Up and Take Action, an annual global mobilisation against poverty.
The mobilisation will take place just two days before world leaders meet at the UN Millennium Development Goal Review Summit. This is the last realistic chance to deliver the promise to half extreme poverty on time.
At the demo a message will be recorded, to be played to delegates at the UN summit, asking them to keep their promises- to deliver and funded, timetabled breakthrough plan to meet the MDGs.
Please come and join us there, to make a noise with drums, bells, whistles, pots and pans. The time for silence has passed. It is time to make ourselves heard.

Stand Up and Make a Noise in Westminster is organized by UK campaign groups, as part of Stand Up and Take Action, a global mobilisation from 17th-19th September, facilitated by Global Call to Action Against Poverty and the UN Millennium Campaign.
