Are you tired, like us, of all talk and no action? Don’t despair, there is local campaigning going on for social justice. Only trouble is that it’s usually unsupported and unconnected (strange how the Capacity Building industry passed this by), leaving brave souls to battle on alone. And even stranger that most CVS’s have passed this by as well – guess they think that the gravy train will pass them by if they got involved in real social change.
Hackney Unites being a rare exception to this.

So NCIA wants to do what it can to bring back, encourage and support advocacy and campaign work at the local level, especially to find ways in which support can be truly helpful to those involved in these activities.

Our aim is to build a national interest group to bring together information and intelligence with interested NCIA supporters; and work in 4 local areas to demonstrate the action that’s needed everywhere – particularly during attempts to make public service cuts.

We’re looking for local hosts to work with, who can provide the necessary support to the local activists and groups; and others who want to spark and flame social change locally. Folk in London are already on the job.

If you want to join them and NCIA, just get in touch. Hope to hear from you soon.
