Convicted Extinction Rebellion architect to lead delegation

An architect who ended up with a criminal record after taking part in an Extinction Rebellion protest is to lead a rally to the Arb’s headquarters tomorrow.

Tom Bennett of Studio Bark will deliver a letter asking the Architects Registration Board to protect professionals who face legal proceedings because of their personal beliefs.

The newly formed Architects Climate Action Network (ACAN) will support him when he hands over the letter at Weymouth Street in central London tomorrow lunchtime.
