On 21 November, the grand Middle Temple venue of PBI’s 30th Anniversary gala in London resounded with a capacity audience of almost 300 supporters.
The actors Simon Russell Beale, Jack Fortune, Juliet Stevenson, Stephanie Street, Zoë Wanamaker and Sam West, and the musicians Helen Chadwick, Joanna Foster, Barbara Gellhorn and Osnat Schmool, gave up an evening from their busy schedules to perform for free in support of PBI and the threatened human rights defenders we protect. They gave a performance that surpassed all our hopes and expectations.
