Mohamed Abusal On Location
“Mohamed Abusal’s artistic projects are ‘daring, critical and scathing comments on what is deemed permissible in terms of technology and civilisation in Gaza today.”
Every October, we ask women in the UK to stand in solidarity with women in Gaza by hosting fundraising events throughout the Autumn or by donating to our Women 4 Women Appeal. So many people ask about this campaign all year round so we are more than happy for you to support this amazing work at any time of year.

Every year, to mark breast cancer awareness month (or Rosy October as it’s called in Gaza), we ask women to come together to do something they love, to raise awareness and vital funds to help the women of Gaza to access the breast cancer screening programme at Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City.
Past events have included coffee mornings, art exhibitions, gigs, Palestinian dinners, clothes swaps, exhibitions, gin tasting, marathons, interactive installations and church services. Just £60 provides breast cancer screening and support for one woman in Gaza.
Please help us help as many women as possible gain access to screening by making a donation to our Women 4 Women appeal here.

Screening is so simple and so effective — if we can work with women so that they can identify breast cancer early, we can treat it. We need to make screening normal for women and change traditional attitudes. At the moment too many die, they are scared that if diagnosed they will be shunned by their families. Suhaila Tarazi — Director of Al Ahli Arab Hospital, Gaza City

Amos Trust is privileged to have been developing links and building relationships with the visual arts community in Gaza since 2015. On Location is our new project, which will promote, support and celebrate the power, resilience and vibrancy of the artistic community living and working under siege in Gaza today. Full details.
On Location 2023 marks the 75th anniversary of the Nakba, when 750,000 Palestinians were forced to flee their homes. To mark this event, we have added eight new remarkable Gazan artists to our On Location gallery. We hope you will join us in celebrating the creativity and resilience of the Palestinian people. Full details.
Rebuilding demolished homes in the West Bank is a powerful challenge to injustice and a profound act of solidarity. Each block we carry, each bucket of cement we mix, are much more than just materials — they are made of stuff that really matters. Please support our home rebuilding programme.
In Summer 2020, Amos Trust will relive our Just Walk to Jerusalem. We want as many people as possible to join us, so that together, we walk the 3,000 miles it takes to reach Jerusalem. In 2017 we walked from London to Jerusalem to apologise to the Palestinian people for Britain’s Balfour Declaration. In 2020 we are walking again to say “No!” to Israel’s annexation of up to 1/3 of the West Bank and to raise the money needed to keep calling for justice for Palestinians. Step Out, Step Up and Stop Annexation.
Amos Trust is privileged to have been developing links and building relationships with the visual arts community in Gaza since 2015. On Location is our new project which will promote, support and celebrate the power, resilience, professionalism and vibrancy of the artistic community living and working under siege in Gaza today.

Discovering you have breast cancer is devastating but if you live in the Gaza Strip, it is three times more likely to be terminal. In an economy on its knees, edging out of another conflict, this is impossible for many people. The best hope is early detection. October is breast cancer awareness month and we’re asking the woman of the UK to stand in solidarity with our sisters in Gaza by hosting a local event to raise awareness and support amongst family, friends and neighbours throughout October, November and December.
