Islington FOE activities this autumn

We are planning a series of campaigning activities over the coming months:

The Big Ask campaign - we will be out and about putting the message across that the Climate Change Bill needs to be tougher

Recycling picks - following our recycling picks at the Emirates stadium last season we are planning further picks elsewhere in the borough, rescuing rubbish that would otherwise go to landfill

Camapaign Against Climate Change March and Rally - and we will joining many others on the Campaign Against Climate Change March on 8th December

There will also be our regular monthly meetings and no doubt we will organising a Christmas gathering to round off the year's campaigning.

If you would like to get involved in any of these activities, get in touch with our co-ordinator. Email sltaylor001@yahoo.co.uk

Islington FOE at the Canal Festival

The sun shone for us at the Angel Canal Festival



Jenny, Debbie and Andrew


We were much in demand by local politicians. John chatted to several Liberal Democrat councillors and Stephen found himself in demand to have his photograph taken with...


... Bridget Fox, formerly local councillor and current prospective parliamentary candidate for the Lib Dems in Islington South

and...



Sarah Ludford MEP

All Lib Dems. It's good to see they support the Big Ask campaign.

Another eighty five people came by to sign Big Ask postcards, as well as Sarah and Bridget.
