Organise an event

Many people will organise events during the campaign. This can take a lot of time and energy so only take this on if you have a committed group around you with whom to make it a success.

Step one: Think of an event

You could organise a special service at your place of worship which you invite your candidates to or organise a public gathering, like a hustings.

Step two: Prepare the event

Make posters and leaflets about the event, advertise it in relevant newsletters and make sure to invite all of your own friends and family, as well as promoting it over relevant email lists.

Step three: Hold the event

Whatever you do, make sure you pressure your candidate(s) with the policies in the Vote Global Manifesto.

Step four: Tell the world

After your event, write a letter to the relevant local newspaper comparing the performance of the politicians you met or perhaps write a longer account in a local newsletter, blog, or a social networking website. Alternatively, simply write an email to your friends.
