Literary Evening with prominent human rights authors

REDRESS, an award-winning organisation that helps torture survivors seek justice, will be marking its 20th anniversary with a Literary Evening and a drinks reception on April 24th.

The Literary Evening will take place at The Tabernacle in Notting Hill and will feature readings from prominent writers that have canvassed the topic of torture and human rights in their work. Roma Tearne (Sri Lanka), Haifa Zangana (Iraq) and Patricio Pron(Argentina) will be among the authors participating and Lindsey Hilsum, Channel 4 News International Editor, will chair the event. In addition, a number of our clients who have undergone torture will present readings during the evening.

The readings will be followed by a discussion with the authors, other panellists and the audience and the event will finish with a drinks reception.
