<[link removed]>Dear Friend,

Next month will mark 80 years since the US nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

In commemoration of this milestone, we’re pleased to launch today the Children’s Peace Memorial <[link removed]> – a project honouring the memories of the estimated 38,000 children killed in the attacks.

<[link removed]>Visit the Children's Peace Memorial <[link removed]>It features more than 400 profiles <[link removed]> with details of the children’s lives, their agonising deaths and the grief of surviving family members. The children range in age from infants to teenagers.

By sharing their heart-wrenching stories, we hope to awaken the global public to the grave and growing threat posed by nuclear weapons – and ensure that no one else, young or old, ever suffers the same fate.

This is an increasingly urgent task given the continued deterioration of relations among nuclear-armed nations and erosion of the nuclear taboo. 

Please take the time to read some of the stories in the Children’s Peace Memorial <[link removed]> – difficult though it may be – and share them with friends, colleagues and family members.

80 years ago, nuclear bombs killed more than 38,000 children in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Their lives were cut short, their futures stolen. This new memorial remembers them. #NuclearBan #Hiroshima80 #Nagasaki80 #RememberTheChildren

Visitors to the site are invited to fold paper cranes <[link removed]> and send them to national decision-makers with a plea to join the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

Only by changing hearts and minds will we achieve our goal of the total elimination of nuclear weapons. We believe that the stories on this site have the power to do just that.

Kind regards,

Tim Wright
