Fundraising appeal - help us elect hope this May

On the 7th May there are elections all over the UK - for the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Senedd, and for thousands of councillors and Mayors across England. 

Reform are hoping to sweep the board with their politics of hate. But there is hope. 

All over the country an alternative is rising - inspiring candidates are standing for election to defend communities under attack from the far-right and to build a fairer future. A future of lower bills, warm homes and clean air.

So we’re getting organised to elect hope this May - and call time on politicians who won’t stand up for our generation and our communities.

What we're doing

• We’re taking action that targets any politician working from Reform's racist, climate-denying playbook, showing them up and grabbing headlines
• We’re building an exciting online tool where you can plug in your postcode and find places to go and campaign for the inspiring candidates who need you the most
• Using the tool, in local teams we’ll be heading out across the country to organise for candidates, and talk to our communities about the elections
• Hosting big training days to bring our movement of young people together, get skilled up in election campaigning and canvass for candidates
• All the while, we’ll be building a national story through pitching our young spokespeople, inviting press to our actions and filling our socials with our message

What your donation could be spent on

• £100 pays for travel costs for a young person to join an action day
• £50 pays for an online action training session, prepping our movement to take action against Reform
• £20 pays for a round of hot drinks for a local team our knocking doors

Any donations leftover after polling day will go towards our ongoing fight to win a Green New Deal.
