As we approach the 40th anniversary of Embrace the Base, the iconic action that brought Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp to international notoriety, we are excited to host social archivers Greenham Women Everywhere and activists from Faslane Peace Camp in a day of banner making, information sharing, memory recording and song!
