Get Involved

Do you want to be part of a movement that is helping to improve lives in Manchester and across the world?

By getting involved in our group you become part of a wider movement in which more and more people are waking up to the reality: that we don’t need to accept the world as it is – we can make it our world.

We are always looking for new people to be involved, whether helping on stalls, managing websites, writing press releases, meeting your MPs, organising fundraisers, helping at swap shops, and much more. We run a variety of campaigns which you can get involved in – or even run your own if have a few people interested.

To get updates on our campaigns, hear talks and get involved in discussions, come to our monthly full group meetings on the second Tuesday of each month. Or if you just want to get stuck into working on a campaign, come to our campaigns meetings on the last Thursday of each month. If you can’t make a meeting you could always email us and ask if you can help remotely. There are also stalls to help with, socials, and other special events to come to which you can find on our calendar.

We hope that you’ll be interested in campaigning with us, or if not, then one of the many other great groups out there, because the time has come to demand a better world.
