On 21 June a constructive meeting took place in Cairo between Interpal Trustees, a representative of the Egyptian Foreign Ministry and other NGOs to discuss the practical aspects of facilitating the entry of a European convoy taking medical aid to the Gaza Strip through Egypt. The convoy is part of Interpal’s ongoing efforts to support the people of Palestine with desperately needed humanitarian aid.

The Palestinian Authority Minister of Religious Affairs is visiting Britain as a guest of Interpal. During the visit, Dr. Mahmoud Habbash will have meetings with the Archbishop of Canterbury, Labour MP Richard Burden and the Charity Commission, among others. He will also attend Muslim Aid’s 25th Anniversary Dinner, at which the Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, is the Chief Guest.

Join us at this exclusive fundraising dinner with special guests and a stunning 5 course meal. The evening will also include a range of top auction items, performances and a complimentary gift bag.
