SUMMARY:Book launch: An Uneasy Inheritance by Polly Toynbee - London
DESCRIPTION:While for generations Polly Toynbee’s ancestors have been committed left-wing rabble-rousers railing against injustice\, they could never claim to be working class\, settling instead for the prosperous life of academia or journalism enjoyed by their own forebears. So where does that leave their ideals of class equality? \nThrough a colourful\, entertaining examination of her own family – which in addition to her writer father Philip and her historian grandfather Arnold contains everyone from the Glenconners to Jessica Mitford to Bertrand Russell\, and features ancestral home Castle Howard as a backdrop – Toynbee explores the myth of mobility\, the guilt of privilege\, and asks for a truly honest conversation about class in Britain. \nPolly Toynbee is a Journalist\, Author and Broadcaster. Primarily writing for the Guardian\, she has also written for The Observer\, The Independent and Radio Times. She has won numerous awards including a National Press Award and has been What the Papers Say ‘Columnist of the Year’. \nAt this event\, Toynbee will be joined by Marc Stears\, Director of the UCL Policy Lab\, and Harry Quilter-Pinner\, Director of Research and Engagement at IPPR\, who together will discuss Toynbee’s new book and explore the role of class\, mobility and privilege in the UK. There will be an opportunity to pose questions to our speakers and this event will be followed by a networking drinks reception.

SUMMARY:USDAW - Supporting Parents and Carers Spotlight Day
DESCRIPTION:Each year we hold a campaign day called Supporting Parents and Carers Spotlight Day. It’s an important opportunity for the Union to highlight the concerns of members who are caring for someone or bringing up children\, raise awareness of workplace rights and campaign for change. \nThis year\, on Wednesday 28 June\, Usdaw is organising a campaign day focusing on the problems low-paid working parents have finding affordable and flexible childcare. The campaign day this year has the theme ‘Overstretched’ that reflects both the pressures working parents in Usdaw are under and the fact that the UK’s childcare system is in crisis. \nEvery year hundreds of reps get involved on Spotlight Day. If you would like to support Spotlight Day this year\, you can do as much or as little as you like. You could set up a campaign stand in the canteen\, a staff area or on the shop floor. Usdaw will send you everything you need to help you have a successful campaign. \nYou could: \n\nGive out leaflets to members explaining how Usdaw can help them.\nPut a poster on your workplace noticeboard.\nTalk to members about the Union’s campaign.\nAsk members to take the survey.\n\nTo find out more about the campaign visit www.usdaw.org.uk/spc.

SUMMARY:How to: AI & Democracy Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Over the last six months we’ve seen a breakthrough in powerful new AI technologies\, from Stable Diffusion to ChatGPT. These new tools will undoubtedly impact the work of democracy organisations in all sorts of ways\, from automatically drafting text\, creating and editing images and video\, to analysing data and more. Join us for an exploratory session as we put these new AI tools to the test! \nIn this workshop\, you’ll get hands-on experience with the latest AI technologies and how you might use them in your work to strengthen and build a healthier democracy in the UK. You’ll learn about prompt engineering and how to effectively guide the output of AI tools to get the results you want. \nThese tools are so new that nobody is really an expert\, and you don’t need to be able to code to access them – so whether you’re an organiser\, an activist\, campaigner or researcher\, you’re welcome. \nThis is a practical online workshop for people working across the democracy sector who are curious about how recent advances in AI tools might affect their work. \nThis session will be delivered by Hannah O’Rourke\, Co-founder of Campaign Lab. Hannah has been working at the intersection of campaigning and technology since 2018. \nIf you have any questions\, please don’t hesitate to drop us an email at hello@democracynetwork.org.uk. \nUK Democracy Network are a network of people and organisations working on issues of power\, democracy and voice throughout the UK. We aim to connect and work with others to build a stronger democracy fit for the 21st century.

SUMMARY:Troublemakers At Work conference - Manchester
DESCRIPTION:We are calling on all ‘troublemakers at work’ to join us for an important one-day event on Saturday 29 July 2023 at Friends Meeting House\, Manchester. \nWe need to bring together workers who have won improvements at work\, taken strike action\, and transformed weak unions into a strong voice for workers. Our event has a rank and file orientation: the labour movement is built and owned by the workers in it\, not the paid officials or leaderships of unions. \nWe want to attract workers to this event who want to: win a pay rise\, change something about their work\, start a union at work\, or kickstart an existing union at work. \nOur conference is organised by a democratic committee\, without affiliation to political parties or particular unions. \nPlaces are limited and we want to involve a diverse mix of workers. Free professional childcare is available and we will make our event as accessible as we can. \nWe are proudly supported by some serious organisations trying to build the most powerful workers movement we can\, including Workers Can Win!\, Strike Map\, and Organise Now! \nFor more information and to add your organisation as a supporter of this conference\, please get in touch here. \nThis weekend we are launching our register interest form and hoping to promote this across our movement. \nTo keep in touch with the conference and developments from it\, we have created these social media accounts for you to follow and help us promote: \n\nTwitter: @Troublem8kers\nFacebook: @TroublemakersAtWork\nInstagram: @troublem8kersatwork\n\nWe hope you can support this conference and promote it amongst your networks. \nIn solidarity \nIan Allinson – Workers Can Win!\nSarah Woolley – Organise Now!\nHenry Fowler – Strike Map

SUMMARY:Pride in Liverpool
DESCRIPTION:A City Full of Pride.\n\n\n\n\nPRIDE IN LIVERPOOL LOOKS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THIS YEAR\nFrom marching jointly with Kyiv Pride to community-focused zones across the city centre we’re focusing on the roots of Pride and why we still need to protest. \nThis year\, Pride in Liverpool will see five zones across the city centre full of activity\, community performances and local organisations. This will be complimented by lots of fringe events from local businesses as well as of course activity throughout the city’s Pride Quarter.

SUMMARY:Speed Networking: Building a Better Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Democracy in the UK is facing significant challenges\, and it’s time for us to take action and engage in a meaningful way. Introducing… speed networking! \nIn the last five UK elections\, the number of people who abstained from voting surpassed those who cast their vote for the winning party. \nIt’s crucial to recognise that those who choose not to vote are often unfairly labelled as apathetic. In reality\, they have disengaged from a system that has repeatedly failed them. \nTo address this issue\, we are gathering the most talented and passionate individuals dedicated to revitalising our democracy by expanding the electorate. Through speed networking\, we aim to facilitate connections\, foster understanding\, and ignite collaborations that can breathe new life into our democratic processes. \nThis is an opportunity to meet like-minded individuals in a relaxed setting\, enjoying an informal drink while expanding your professional network. \nBy joining us\, you’ll have the chance to connect with exceptional individuals and organisations actively working to engage communities\, increase voter registration\, and maximise voter turnout in future elections. \nDon’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to be a part of the movement towards a stronger\, more inclusive democracy. \nThis event is being held in partnership with the Civic Power Fund and the UK Democracy Network. \nLearn more here!
