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.

The problematic art of humanising Muslims

Ramadan is over and with it ends iftars – the meal eaten to break the fast at sunset. The month has become a great tool for those working on interfaith as the number of community iftars grows and activities such as solidarity fasting have become more common. But efforts to humanise a community that is often painted with a broad terrorist brush contains its own pitfalls.
