Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) is a community of people working together for peace, equality, and justice and against racism, occupation, and colonisation. Members and supporters are united in the belief that Israel’s flouting of international law, continued military occupation of Palestine, and systematic discrimination against Palestinians is unacceptable. It is the largest organisation in the UK dedicated to securing Palestinian human rights. More information ...
IWPSC is one of many regional branches of the PSC. It aims to organise events and actions and to raise awareness of the issue locally. All supporters are welcome at our events, whether PSC members or not.

Our regular Saturday actions from 12 p.m. in St Thomas Square, Newport, aim to raise local awareness of the issue in a peaceful and constructive way. Please check the Facebook page for any updates about this.
On 17 May an estimated half million people marched on Downing Street to mark the 77th anniversary of the 1948 Nakba and to demand government action to end the ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their land. Let's help the 21 June National Demonstration to make as big an impact by getting as many Islanders to London as possible. For updates, please check the Facebook page.
Further actions and fundraising events to be announced in the near future.
On 23 May 2025, approximately 45 members and supporters met at the Unitarian Church Hall, Newport, to inaugurate the newly formed local group and to discuss future strategies and activities. Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to a lively and productive discussion.
Prior to the existence of the local branch, supporters organised a series of bring-and-buy stalls in Ventnor and raised £570 for Hope and Play, an organisation dedicated to helping Palestinian children in the villages and refugee camps under occupation in the Palestinian West Bank, Gaza Strip, and in Lebanon.
Screenings in Newport and Ventnor of Where Olive Trees Weep, a prize-winning documentary about the current crisis in Israel/Palestine. Proceeds were donated to Hope and Play.
Periods of quiet reflection to honour the people of Palestine and remember the innocent lives lost to this terrible war.
