Skills/knowledge/resources your group has that it is willing to share with others | Within our membership we have academics, activists, journalists, podcasters, and people that work in retrofit, so cover a wide range of areas. We are open to help anyone with a geniune intrest in most aspects of media, ecology, and progressive politics. |
Skills/knowledge/resources your group would like to acquire in the coming months | The thing that we are always on the look out for are commited Labour members who are climate-conscious and have a small amount of time each week to either help and support what we do or, alternatively, to start something that we can help and support them to do. We are also keen to speak with any academics or people who work in ecoloical fields, who would like to become a part of our expertise network, and help support progressive GM Labour Cllrs. |
