On Sat Oct 18 - as part of a weekend of world wide action we also stood up to show our support for the global movement to eradicate poverty.

This was part of a series of events taking part over Oct 17-19, all over the world.

In 2007, 40,000 people in Japan and more than 4 million people all over the world took part.
