The last article published on our site was about the upcoming Love Difference festival at Cargo London. In a minor amendment, the Compass Youth Organising Committee have decided to launch two of our very first publications at the event. I’m sure this will be massively persuasive in getting the huddled masses among us to turn out!
The first of our publications will be the first in a series of Campaign Toolkits which we aim to produce for young people both within the Labour Party and other progressive movements. This toolkit will be aimed primarily at members of Labour Students, other progressive youth organisations such as People and Planet, and friendly political societies in universities across the country, and will provide over 30 pages of tips and tactics for running successful living wage campaigns for employees in and around universities, largely building on the previous successes of independent campaigns.
The second publication we will be launching will be a list of publicly respected speakers who will speak on behalf of Compass/Compass Youth at Young Labour groups and University Labour Clubs: watch this space to find out about what our panel can offer.
There will also be a couple of extras involved, to be revealed at the time. You will be able to get hold of this stuff through the website, alongside corresponding guidance from Compass Youth regional reps. All a great reason firstly to get down to Cargo, and secondly to watch this space!
Anyone interested in working on further publications with us is invited to contact us using the tabs at the side of the page.
