On the final day of #FASTFORGAZA on Monday 14 July, fasters and supporters marched from Parliament to the Foreign Office to deliver a letter of protest. The letter calls for: “The resumption of food provision by the regular agencies which have a proven success record in effectively delivering aid”. It is signed in the name of the four UK-Palestine Mental Health Network Steering Group members and more than 100 activists who took part in the fast.
