5) Sign the #PeoplesPetition for the alternative
The People’s Assembly launched a petition just before budget day. In just 48 hours over 4,000 people signed! We will be running this petition as part of the national demonstration. Keep sharing, ask your friends and workmates to sign, and of course sign it if you haven’t already!
6) Urgent financial appeal – help us raise £30,000 for the demonstration
We’ve estimated that the cost of putting on this demonstration is going to come to at least £30,000. See our budget below. (this is separate from local groups transport and publicity).
We’re committed to making sure the demonstration happens – but this means we urgently need to raise these funds. What we can achieve with the demonstration depends entirely on how much money we raise.
Please consider making a donation, and if possible setting up a regular monthly donation so we can properly sustain a permanent campaign against austerity.
