On Thursday 5 May, local council elections will be taking place across the UK. The upcoming elections offer an unmissable opportunity to get local politicians to publicly declare their support for fossil fuel divestment.
On Monday 4 April, we will be launching our campaign to secure pledges from candidates in all nations and across all political persuasions – but we can’t do this without your help!
Event details
We are inviting interested groups and invidivuals to come together to share ideas and start making plans to get as many candidates as possible to commit to taking climate action and supporting the vital move towards a zero-carbon future.

It’s also your chance to ask any questions you might have about getting involved.
All are welcome — whether you’re already part of a local group or looking for a way in to taking climate action, this is a great opportunity to get started.
