Join us for an important and informative evening.

Featuring talks by Luke Cook, who, with his wife, was sentenced to death in Thailand over an alleged failed bid to smuggle half a tonne of crystal meth through the country to Australia. After four years in multiple prisons throughout Thailand, they were exonerated of the charges on appeal in the Supreme Court of Thailand and returned to Australia;
