Local campaigning is at the heart of CND’s work, bringing the issue of nuclear disarmament to peoples’ doorstep and relating it to their communities. There are currently over 100 CND groups across the country engaged in a range of activities in their area and, as groups, becoming involved in the campaign at a national level.
The work of CND groups is vital as it reaches out to people who may not have considered the issue of nuclear disarmament previously and those who felt there was nothing they could do about it. If there is a group near you, do contact them. You can decide how much you want to be involved in local campaigning and give as little or as much time as you feel you are able and you may have some skills or ideas that could be of use. It is also a great way to make new friends and become involved in something you feel strongly about.
If there is no group in your area, why not start one? Starting a new group can seem like a daunting task but with some basic preparation it should be a very rewarding experience as well as crucial to CND’s campaign for a nuclear free world. CND national office can help so do get in touch if you require advice or support.
There are various ways to start a group and there is not a prescribed procedure that you need to follow. As long as the group’s campaigning focus reflects that of national CND, the way forward and method of organisation is entirely decided by the group’s members.
To find details of your nearest local group, see the contacts pages.
