"It has been a rough time recently. There has been a lot to keep up with, emotionally as much as anything – here and there – by now much to update you.
We’ve had some sudden setbacks – with the announcement that Nazanin will now be taken to trial. And also some hope and thanks – to the Prime Minister for personally raising Nazanin’s case, and linking it to future relations. There are also things I have promised to say. Lots which must wait for a proper update.
First, we are doing an anniversary event for friends and family this Sunday – tying woollen memory knots, as a calm reminder that she and Gabriella are not forgotten, to Nazanin’s her favourite bridge in London. We will post pictures of our woollen knots on our Facebook page and instagram. This weekend you might be willing to tie your own knots of wool, somewhere closer to your own home, and post your own picture.
Second, the main purpose of this message is to announce something new for our family this weekend – to ask you be involved in a Twitter Storm. The request is to ask you to join us in a Twitter Storm tomorrow, Friday August 12th, 2016 (6PM UK, 1PM US East Coast, 9:30PM Iran). These past months have taught me the power of social media – to push for change. The aim of the twitter storm is simple, get our story trending globally and secure more signatures and support for our petition."
