LBL, a Bristol-based labour rights co-operative urgently need volunteers to come in - anything from a couple of hours to a day or half day - to help us get our end of year action mail out to our supporters. This Christmas we're doing a big push on Gap to improve their health and safety commitment in overseas factories after hundreds of workers in Pakistan and Bangladesh have died in factory fires this year alone. Find out more here:

We are also targeting H&M to commit to paying living wages in Cambodia, one of their biggest source countries where workers are consistently fainting from malnutrition and overwork due to poor wages and massive overtime. Find our more here: http://livingwage.cleanclothes.org/

If you'd like to help please drop us an email or give us a ring. We're looking for people to come in between now (4th Dec) and 13th Dec. Tea, coffee, biscuits provided and lunch if you're in for the long haul.
