WE"Pray For Japan" The north coast of Japan was hit by a horrible tsunami after an 9.0 magnitude earthquake on Friday 11 March that occurred 80 miles ...offshore. Tsunami waves caused major destruction and killed many people in northern Japan. Current estimates are that over 10,000 people have died. Hundreds of thousands of people are without electricity, and there serious water and food shortages. In addition to this, the escalating problem at Fukushima nuclear power plant made is taking the disaster to another level another level. This is officially the worst crisis for Japan since WW2.. Being here in London, this incident is profoundly upsetting and arouses the deepest sympathies, we feel the urgent need to take action, to give a hope and shout to all the people in Japan. Please come and join us as we pay tribute to the victims, raise money for he rescue and relocation effort, and generally stand in solidarity with Japan in the face of this terrible catasrophy.
