Joel Brooks, a long-standing supporter of Free Tibet, held a circus skills workshop. Joel, who performs and teaches at Jambalaya Juggling held the workshop at a holiday club for different age groups at Ringwood Waldorf School in Dorset. Joel said that he “donated the fee to this charity as the plight is something I feel so strongly about, we can’t just sit on our phones tutting at what is going on, we need to support great causes - through Circus!”
In October 2021, three Tibetans living in Toronto, Canada took part in the Peace Rally Marathon for Tibet. During this ultra-marathon, which spanned 12 days, Pema Kunga, Tenzin Shedup and Dechen Wangdi Peace covered an incredible 680km. The aim of their ultra-marathon was to raise awareness of the global ‘No Beijing 2022’ campaign. The money raised was donated to four Tibetan charities.
On 12th September 2021, Team Tibet (Pete, Jason and Sylvie) made history by running the Brighton Marathon for Free Tibet and Tibet Watch for the first time.
