Membership

Join our powerful community

Members are part of a vibrant organisers network for training, events and solidarity.

We are a network of people and collectives all across the UK, bringing together new and seasoned organisers to train, create and act together.

As a member, you can:

  • Learn from expert facilitators through courses, workshops and one-to-ones.
  • Participate in special programmes and guest events.
  • Connect with organisers and changemakers working across a variety of issues.

Your membership also supports our work to stay financially independent – accountable to organisers, not funders.
