Dear Friend
Time is running until the International Commission for the Cuban Five in London will start, but you still have time to buy tickets for the Commission sessions, the Voices for Cuba concert, and the Closing Dinner, all of which are now on sale here.
To find out more and book tickets go to http://www.voicesforthefive.com/commission/tickets/
Rene Gonzalez will speak at all events
You can buy tickets for one, two, three or all four events, taking place over the two days. And if you really want to hear from René González, the first of the Five to be freed on his first visit to Britain, you don’t need to worry if one sells out as he will be appearing at all four events.

So if you can’t make either of the Commission’s day time sessions you can enjoy a wonderful evening with full three course evening meal, cocktails, wine, live Cuban music, and speakers including René González, Alice Walker and Ricardo Alarcón here instead.
