How to contribute to 100 Days and The Big One
We're planning the biggest climate protest ever seen in the UK and we need an army of volunteers to make it happen! Can you help us?
Everything Extinction Rebellion has done has been built by everyday folk volunteering their time. The amount of time our volunteers contribute directly determines how how big an impact we can have. EVERYONE is encouraged to take on a role for The Big One. You will get to have fun, meet some amazing people and make an impact all at once!
There are two main types of role:
- Become a Planner and join a vibrant network of busy ants helping build and weave the action. The work is needed right now, with the roles continuing at least to the end of the action. These roles are remote so you can work online from anywhere in the country.
- Join the Support Crew to get involved with tasks on the ground for the Big One. Help people feel safe and connected. Training and support provided. We need LOTS of people in these roles!
You can follow one or more of the following routes to finding a role:
Apply for roles on our Volunteer Website
The Volunteer Website functions as a jobs board where specific roles within the 100 Days campaign are advertised. Everything highlighted in yellow is a role particularly needed right now.
Here you will see both planner and crew roles.
100 Days community online
HERE you can ask questions, get all the latest announcements and updates and find out how to volunteer your time in the run-up to the Big One. Join the Online Community on Mattermost.
There are five numbered channels; you will be joined to them automatically when you follow the link. Between them they contain everything you need to get involved.
When you arrive we invite you to come and say hello in the 4. Introductions channel. The friendly online community support team (using the handle @100support) will answer your questions and help you get connected and find the role to best suit you.
Here's is a playlist of videos to help you use Mattermost and to find the app for your phone.
