Free Hope.
Wondering what you can do to make a difference? Want to influence this election that’s about to shape the direction of our collective futures? Same.
Here’s some hope in action.
Throughout history, ordinary people have achieved radical change. It only requires 3.5% of a population to be engaged in order to shape world politics. Come and learn how people power happens, and how you can be part of it (in a way that works for you). There’ll be a Q&A, and a workshop on how to build a ballot based on values.
Join two enormously hope-filled humans, Climate Change Campaigner Isaac Astill, and Greens Candidate Katie McCusker. Hosted by Tessa and Triton. Dose up on inspiration and motivation. Feel empowered about what’s possible. Ask questions to folks who’ve made amazing things happen. Bring a pal who needs a political mood boost.
Come for the free drinks (yes, wine) and the free snacks (raw vegan treats of course). Stay for the free hope.
