MINUTE OF SILENCE FOR PEACE 
Every Day, Anywhere, Everywhere!
During the month of the Edinburgh Festivals we are promoting a minute of silence for peace across the whole city at 1pm each day.

Its Just-a-Minute and could have a huge impact if thousands of people across the city just simply stop what they're doing for just a minute at one o'clock: pass the word on and lets make this happen.
