Campaigning

Respect those ahead and learn from their history

This campaign tip (no. 70) was published on Monday, 11th March 2019

It's very unlikely you'll be starting something new in what's been a complete vacuum.

Look around, read in, see who's already involved directly or in the periphery. If you can use the knowledge and skill of people who are already around, that's good. If you can earn their support, that's excellent. If you can add their skills to your such that it's better than just the sum of the two, that's fantastic.

These pages are written by Graham Ellis of Melksham, Wiltshire. Overlapping a life in IT and IT training, with running a hotel and campaigning for improved public transport, Graham has never been quiet - though he's starting to wind down gently now. He no longer takes overnight guests and has stepped doen from the "Community Rail Officer" role which he accidentally aquired. So he now has more time to write pages such as these and to travel in the UK. He'll be delighted to speak with your group or take a look through your case or camapaign, but be alerted that his time is not limitless even now, and he still has to keep the wolf from the door.
