Organising

By bringing people together at community events and speaking to them on their doorstep, putting locally tailored leaflets through doors, training people to have better conversations, and helping communities to organise around issues important to them, our community organisers spread HOPE, and work with people to build stronger communities more resilient to hateful and divisive politics.

We also support a network of HOPE not hate volunteer organisers in communities across the country to do the same.
