Appeals: The Prisoners of Conscience Appeal Fund
The Prisoners of Conscience Appeal Fund is a small charity working world-wide to help people who have been persecuted, imprisoned and often tortured because of their religious or political beliefs - expressed non-violently - or their ethnic origin. The fund helps prisoners after they have been released: 480 people - many of them Kurds, Bosnians and Somalians coming to the UK - have been assisted in the last eight months.
