A peaceful prayer vigil outside HSBC’s new UK headquarters (on Broad St) organised by Midlands Christian Actoin (MiChA). We will be praying for HSBC to divest from the arms trade.

The arms trade needs banks and financial institutions to invest in it, in order to keep exporting the machinery of war around the world.

HSBC have £102m of shares in Boeing and £180m of shares in BAE Systems, who are the 2nd and 3rd largest arms companies in the world, amongst many others (Source: Stop Arming Israel, 2017).

Join us in witnessing against this financial support for the arms trade, as HSBC opens it’s new UK headquarters in Birmingham.
