Help us promote the campaign

We’ve seen photos of the billboards in their Belfast and London locations. Take a look at www.humanism.org.uk/billboards/images

Not sure if Cardiff and Edinburgh are up yet. Cardiff and Edinburgh should be up, too! Let us know if you take a photograph…? You can email website {at} humanism.org(.)uk

Also see www.humanism.org.uk/billboards/promote for web buttons like the ones below, and other ways that you can help to promote the Don’t Label Me billboard campaign.

Breaking News: Atheist Billboard Campaign Launches Today!

Atheist Billboard Campaign

This week, the final phase of the atheist bus campaign will appear in London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast – not on buses, but on billboards. Due to the amazing sums you donated to the campaign fund at the end of last year, we raised enough for a second wave of adverts – and the above posters on the theme of freedom of belief will launch today. Thank you again so much for your generosity.

The Atheist’s Guide To Christmas (AKA The Atheist Book Campaign)

Finished Jacket

This is the cover of “The Atheist’s Guide To Christmas”, Britain’s first atheist charity book initiative, which I’ve been editing on a voluntary basis for the last six months. The full advance and all royalties from the book are going to the UK HIV charity Terrence Higgins Trust.

The book features contributions from 42 of the UK’s most entertaining atheist scientists, comedians, philosophers, journalists and writers, including:

Richard Dawkins
Derren Brown
Charlie Brooker
David Baddiel
Ben Goldacre
Josie Long
Richard Herring
Simon Singh
Brian Cox
Jenny Colgan
AC Grayling
Simon Le Bon
Claire Rayner
Robin Ince
Jon Holmes
Zoe Margolis
Phil Plait
Mitch Benn
Lucy Porter
Adam Rutherford

… and many, many more, all of whom have kindly given their time, thought and talent for free. The book has six sections: Stories, Arts, Science, Philosophy, How To and Events. It’s funny, thoughtful and hopefully quite beautiful in places, and also contains quotes from great atheists throughout history.

It is published on October 1 and available to pre-order now. It would be brilliant if we could see it enter the Top Ten Bestsellers in its first week of release, raising thousands for THT.

Please pre-order it now:

Thank you!

It’s Been A While…

but we’ll be back very soon with exciting news. Until then, here’s a brilliant rendering of the Atheist Bus Campaign by US design student Joshua Richman:

See you soon!

Thank You Everyone!

Thank you to everyone who donated to the campaign in its six-month donation phase. We raised a phenomenal amount – during a credit crunch, no less – and special thanks should go to Simon Bishop, Richard Williams, Malcolm Dodd, Andrea Busby, Oliver Rowland, Deedyi, Dave Worrall, Gordon Livesey, and everyone else who kept the page alive and helped make the campaign such a success.

The JustGiving page is now closed. We’ll keep you updated on everything that’s happening here, but until then, I’ll leave those of you who haven’t yet seen it with this beautiful story:

Thank you again for your generosity, and see you soon.
