Resources for Local Groups

Positive Money local groups support the Positive Money mission: to reform our money and banking system so that it supports a fair, democratic and sustainable economy. Local groups have three main objectives: to raise awareness of our work and campaigns in their local community, to lobby local MPs and build relationships, and to support group members to take action and learn. Our local groups both meet regularly and organise actions outside of their meetings – like holding stalls at festivals, doing presentations for other community groups and meeting local politicians.

RESOURCES FOR LOCAL GROUP MEETINGS

Most Positive Money local groups host meetings once a month, where the Positive Money team invite all supporters in the local area. Often a meeting is structured by starting with a talk, presentation, or film showing, then followed by a discussion or Q&A. Then local group members might plan any actions they have coming up, like holding stalls at events or meeting their MPs.

Local groups are spaces to support each other to learn about the money and banking system and to plan actions to raise awareness about the campaign with local people, politicians and the media. Below are a list of resources you could use for your local group meetings.

The all-important signup form!
Please remember to take a Positive Money signup form to every meeting or event and ask attendees to sign up to follow the campaign. You can then email a picture of each form to us so they can be added to the Positive Money mailing list.
