Become a Grassroots Campaigner with RESULTS

RESULTS UK is a movement of passionate, committed, everyday people. Together, we use our voices to influence political decisions that will bring an end to global poverty.

What You'll Do: 

Each month our campaigners take a well-researched campaign action, which is sent out in our action materials. The 'Call to Action' is often to write and engage with, MPs and Government Ministers. Who you write to depends on who the RESULTS UK policy and parliamentary teams think you can influence the most! There are often also prompts for taking action on social media or local media. 

As well as taking monthly actions, the London group regularly joins our monthly conference calls. We discuss the focus of that month's campaign action, and hear an update from around the network. We also welcome an expert guest speaker on the topic of the month. The calls are a great opportunity to learn about international development, ask questions, and connect with other campaigners.

It is an exciting time to get involved, meet likeminded people, and join a network of passionate campaigners across the UK!
