Connecting with other organisers helps us to share experiences and see where we can learn and build power together.

This event is a space to meet other organisers, discuss triumphs, and unpack challenges that are coming up for us. We will also spend time brainstorming how we can support each other, and how Act Build Change can support members in the issues they are facing.

Our community is based across the UK and beyond, working on a range of issues from local to national campaigns.
