BIG Campaign
Help to build the growing boycott and disinvestment campaign in the country. Make sure you do not buy Israeli products in your local shop or supermarket. Look out for our boycott actions but most importantly, this is a campaign you can get involved in without coming to a single meeting! Make sure you boycott Israeli goods yourself, tell all your friends to and pester your local supermarket or shops to join the boycott.

The Peace Cycle 2006
Four supporters of Sheffield PSC took part in the first leg of the London to Jerusalem Peace Cycle ride this summer. The ride began with a rally at the Embankment Gardens on Sunday 6th August 2006 and cycled through ten European countries before the cyclists flew to the Middle East. The ride then continued through Syria and Jordan before reaching the Occupied West Bank.
Steve Pagden, one of the Sheffield cyclists, rejoined the ride in Jordan and cycled through the West Bank with 22 other cyclists. This website will shortly feature an account of the ride, what Steve saw and what he learnt. This will be the first of our 'Sheffield Voices', featuring the experiences of Sheffielders who have travelled to Palestine.
Stop Press ! We have just heard (February 2007) that, partly inspired by the 2006 Peace Cycle, 12 young men and women in the West Bank have just started the first ever Palestinian Cycling Club. The club was started through the enthusiasm of Mohammad Fayeq, a young Palestinian who cycled the whole way from London to Jerusalem with the Peace cycle.
