LRU Organising 101 Training – Saturday 29th & Sunday 30th March, 10am-5pm
Food, childcare and travel expenses provided.
Venue: Pelican House, 144 Cambridge Heath Road, E1 5QJ
Join your fellow renters to find out how we build the power to transform the housing system. A team of trained LRU facilitators will be running our two-day LRU Organising 101 Training. It aims to give members like you the tools and ideas you need to play a bigger and more effective role in building the power to win homes and communities we’re proud to live in.
You must be a member to attend, and this training is aimed at members who are already active in building a local LRU group or branch, and would like to take on more responsibility for supporting other renters to get involved and grow power in the branch.
Our members are facing multiple crises caused by billionaire landlords, international developers and politicians, we need to fight back, we need to win and we need to make our union even more powerful!
On this 2-day training course you’ll learn about and practise the fundamentals of community organising, including:
🫱🏿🫲🏼Outreach
📈Building Leadership
👂🏽Organising conversations
💪🏿Fighting powerful disputes
➕ And more!
Participants will be supported to put their new skills into use in their LRU group or branch after the training.
A requirement of this training is that you commit to coming to the weekend, as well as doing follow up tasks with your branch organiser.
