Upcoming events
Join us at one of our upcoming campaigning events. Our aim is to give you the skills and information you need to represent your views through training and engagement events. Are you interested in learning about a specific campaign, social issue or strategy? Get in touch with our team and we do our best to help put on an event that reflects this.
Democratic Rights Drop-in
Date: Thursday 30th January 2025
Time: 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Location: The DAAC, 4 Waldegrave Road, Teddington TW11 8RF
This year, eligible Londoners have taken part in two major elections – the Mayor of London and London Assembly Elections in May and the General Election in July. Though the ballots have been cast and counted, the work to strengthen our democracy is not over yet. Democracy doesn’t end at the ballot box – it relies on continuous and informed engagement, particularly as we navigate the post-election landscape.
Join us for a drop in session at the Ruils office to learn more about your democratic rights, register to vote and get the right voter ID.
We will also have our Wellbeing Coordinators on site providing free basic health checks and there will be free food.
This event is a drop-in so no registration needed.
Community Organising Training with Citizens UK
Date: Wednesday 19th February 2025
Time: 2:30 – 5:00 pm
Location: The DAAC, 4 Waldegrave Road, Teddington TW11 8RF
Community organising is about bringing people together to win change. This means building community-led solutions to big and small problems, that work for everyone.
We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them and together, we put the power back into people’s hands to hold those responsible to account.
We are partnering with Citizens UK to deliver a training on community organising to help you understand how it works and make change happen.
More details to come soon.
