A 1982 protest at the gates of RAF Greenham Common
After reading a newspaper article about the USA putting nuclear cruise missiles at RAF Greenham Common in Berkshire , England, Pettitt was outraged and decided to organise a march to the base from Cardiff. She joined with three other women and marched 120 miles under the name Women For Life on Earth in 1981. The protest was the beginning of the Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp , which lasted until 2000, having seen the last cruise missile leave in 1991. Since she had her life and family in Wales, Pettitt did not live at the camp and last visited it in 1984.[3] Soviet Peace Committee and independent groups.[4] [3] Walking to Greenham in 2006. The previous year, she set up a charity called Safer Birth In Chad to train midwives in birthing practices.[3]
