Hi

On Monday 13 February 2012, the occupation on Cathedral
Square will be gone, but Occupy Sheffield will continue.
The snow has been fun, but the threat of over £100,000 of
High Court costs, and the Cathedral's answer to peaceful,
public protest as eviction has made the decision easier. 
 
Our stand against excessive greed and corruption of our
democracy continues. Since November 5th, thousands of
people have come to show their support for the camp in
many ways. Thank you Sheffield. Occupy is a global
movement, manifesting itself in the heart of this city
with a occupied space that has been a mission for
fairness, a sentry point for justice and an outpost for
compassion. But we are more than the sum of our parts;
more than tents and sleeping bags. We will continue this
process with events, and build on discussions with
peaceful direct action. 
 
To mark the beginning of a new phase for Occupy Sheffield,
people are invited to a Moving Forward Parade starting at
the camp at 3pm this Saturday 11th February 2012, and
finishing with a free Impromptu Cabaret/Poetry/Open Mic
event at the Citadel of Hope on Cross Burgess Street (near
the Peace Gardens) at 5:30pm. 
 
Occupy Sheffield will continue to have daily meetings.
Public General Assemblies (GA's) are Mon/Wed/Fri at
6:30pm, 3pm on Saturdays and are open to all. Meetings
will start from the Citadel of Hope on Monday, with plans
for meetings back on the streets in the Spring. Follow
@OccupySheffield and @Citadel_of_Hope for the latest."
