You Said, We Did

As a grassroots-led organisation, our members and our local activists are at the heart of everything we do.

We regularly receive suggestions from our members and local activists and, while we are unable to implement every suggestion we receive, where a suggestion will help drive our organisation and the wider movement forward then we will do what we can to implement it.

Below you can find just a small number of the things that we have implemented as a result of suggestions from our members and local activists in recent months.

This page will be updated periodically so that you can see some of the positive developments that have taken place as a result of our feedback and consultation channels with members and local groups.

If you have a suggestion for us, then sign up as a member today or join your local grassroots group to get involved with our movement.
