Organise Together: Manchester Summit

On 28 March, half a million people marched together against the far right.

We’ve shown the country that the politics of hate do not speak for all of us.

But the local election results are a wake-up call that our work is nowhere near done. Across the country, the far right is growing louder and more organised.

Those who push a message of racism and hate are getting more confident – and we will not stand back and watch it happen.

On Saturday 17 October, thousands of people will gather in Manchester to organise, collaborate, and build the future together as part of two summits – North and South.

A space for organisers, campaigners, trade unionists, activists, creatives, educators, community leaders and local people to organise, collaborate and share strategies about how we stop the far right.

This is not a conference for people who sit back and listen.

It is a summit to build power and plan action.

Help us plan, organise and build together against the far right in local communities across the country.
