Former soldier jailed for refusing to return to Afghanistan and one of the leaders of last year's student revolt appeal for funds to help our growing organisation.

Counterfire is a new, fast-growing socialist organisation. We need your help and involvement in lots of ways. One of them is funding. Counterfire was set up only eighteen months ago, but we have played a crucial role in the student revolts, solidarising with the Arab revolutions and - most recently - supporting Occupy LSX.

This success reflects a huge demand for practical socialist politics and coordinated resistance against austerity and war.

Publications, meetings, protests: these all cost. And the only income we get is from our members and supporters. So we are asking you to do two things:

1. Please take out a standing order to Counterfire immediately to ensure we have a consistent and stable income. If you have done this already, please consider increasing your current payment.
2. Please donate to our appeal so we can prepare for what will be a profound and decisive year ahead.

Donations will go towards a complete revamping of the Counterfire site and the start-up costs of our new office - together totalling many thousands of pounds.

• A £5 per month standing order for a year will pay for 1 month of website overheads
• £15 per month for a year will pay for 5000 postcards to promote events
• £30 per month for a year will pay for half an order of full-colour broadsheets

Please give generously and equip the movement with the Counterfire it deserves. Payment is easy.
