Act Now, Change Forever: What Now? Building on the Mass Lobby for Lasting Impact

Now you've attended the Act Now, Change Forever Mass Lobby - what can you do next? The Mass Lobby was an incredible opportunity to bring people together from all corners of the UK, create new connections, win commitments from MPs and everything in between. We should all feel proud for taking part.

This collective moment in history is a step in the journey to securing real, lasting change, together. At Hope for the Future and The Climate Coalition, we know that shaping a future that’s healthier, fairer and more secure for all requires developing long-term, sustainable partnerships with our MPs that allow us to continue building confidence and strength, and holding our politicians to promises they made on the day. That's why we see the Mass Lobby not as the end goal of our strategy, but rather, its launch pad.

So What Now? In these 90-minute workshops, our friends at Hope for the Future will be offering a space to celebrate and debrief the MP meetings while discussing strategies for effective follow-up and relationship development. We will offer practical support to:

• Sustain engagement over time, developing personal confidence between you and your MP

• Learn key lessons from your experience of the Mass Lobby

• Scale up political asks, with a focus on increasing ambition and impact gradually

• Maintain and build upon the momentum of the Lobby to keep climate and nature action high on the agenda - including as part of the Distributed Lobby week (13th - 20th September)

You’ll also hear from others who took part in the Mass Lobby and get a chance to connect with others who share a vision for a fairer future. This is your opportunity to develop new skills, build your power and take ongoing meaningful action – together.

This training session is for people who attended the Act Now, Change Forever Mass Lobby, and are inspired to continue building a relationship with their MP; especially those who are at the beginning of their campaigning journey and met their MP for the first time at the lobby.
