CND is launching a major new billboard campaign

US nuclear weapons are returning to the UK for the first time in decades. Donate to CND and help us launch a major new billboard campaign to stop these nukes for good.

Dear Friend,

US nuclear weapons are returning to the UK for the first time since 2008. In April, we learnt that the US Department of Defense has added the UK to a list of NATO nuclear weapons storage locations in Europe being upgraded under a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure programme. This means that US nuclear weapons will be coming to RAF Lakenheath, a base in Suffolk run by the US.

Their return will ratchet up global tensions at a critical time. We're already seeing the very real danger that the war in Ukraine will escalate into a direct conflict between NATO and Russia, making the threat of nuclear war the greatest it has been for decades. The presence of US nuclear weapons in the UK will make any peaceful resolution to the conflict more difficult. And it will put Britain on the front line in any future nuclear war.

Help us expose what's happening with a massive-scale billboard campaign across the country - the public must know.

Yes, I will help towards the cost of the billboards

In the coming weeks and months we want to place a series of huge, eye-catching billboards in towns and cities across the country, including in Birmingham and Liverpool for the Conservative and Labour Party conferences.

We need to get the message about the return of US nukes out as widely as possible. In the face of government dissembling and media apathy, it's up to us to spread the word - but we can only do it with your help.

Yes, I will donate and help get the message heard

With huge public opposition, led by CND, we stopped these nukes before - and with your help we can stop them again.

It was massive popular protest and public opposition to the presence of US nuclear weapons in the UK that saw them removed in the first place; from cruise missiles in the 1980s to the removal of the last US nukes from Lakenheath in 2008. Without huge public opposition, led by CND, they would still be here today. We must take the lead once again.

But to do this, we need to raise at least £18,500 to place all the adverts we need. And we can't do this without your help. The more money we can raise, the more billboards we can get in locations all over the country, and the more people will be made aware of these incredibly dangerous and destabilising plans.

You can help stop these terrible weapons from making us a target. Donate now and let's make the country a safer place.

In peace,

Kate Hudson
