Why should I join the movement?

Community Organisers is a growing movement of people involved in community organising.

Our members are working together to:

fix the digital divide ensuring affordable and accessible internet access through the #OperationWiFi campaign
tackle food poverty by developing food banks, social supermarkets and joining forces with a variety of members and organisations as part of the food equity action group to eradicate food poverty
help gain support for mental health pressures and eradicate the mental pressures people face, which have been exacerbated by the pandemic, through our mental pressures action group

We can do more together than we can on our own

Together we are building collective power

Power is at the heart of our work. Not the stuff that keeps the lights on (though that’s important too!). The power that comes through the relationships built when people get organised. Across our Membership, we are listening and identifying the issues that people face. We support them to come together and build their collective power so that they can be heard.

A movement committed to sharing, learning and reflection

Over the years we have learned the power that comes from people sharing and learning together. As an organisation, we don’t know everything, and we never will. What we do know is that our Movement is attracting ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Giving people the chance to share their stories and learn from each other inspiring many more people to get involved in community action.

Finding Community Organisers was a revelation to me. Community organising is the way I want to be involved in my communities and my neighbourhood and I want to do everything I can to support this work.
