# How do subscribers join the email list

#### UK List
Pointing people to the UK website [extinctionrebellion.uk](https://extinctionrebellion.uk) is the very simplest way to get someone on to Action Network. 

#### Local Groups

This [Local Group Map]((https://map.extinctionrebellion.uk/)) is a list of all known XR groups in the UK. Some have Action Network email lists. When you click on the map pin and then click 'sign up for news' you will be subscribed to that local group. (If they don't have a list, then the subscription defaults to the nation/region.)

Local Groups can now have a dedicated shortlink in the style of joinxr.uk/localgroupname - see [Local Group Sign ups page](https://rebeltoolkit.extinctionrebellion.uk/books/action-network-for-xr/page/local-group-sign-ups) for more info 

All subscriptions cascade 'up' the geographical list structure i.e. if you sign up to Birmingham, you will also be signed up to Midlands and UK lists. Plus there is a 'ladder' (which is a bit of code), in operation that then picks up this new subscriber and adds them to the monthly Global Newsletter list.

The map which is embeded on this [page](https://extinctionrebellion.uk/act-now/local-groups/) of the Uk website  and also can be accessed [HERE](https://map.extinctionrebellion.uk/)

Note : not all groups with a pin on this map have an Action Network email list (update Nov 2022 - there is a project running to make sure if a group has a pin they also have their own list). If they don't the sign up form defaults to signing a new rebel up to the regional list. 

Find out if your group has a list already by contacting the [Action Network Data Team](https://rebeltoolkit.extinctionrebellion.uk/books/action-network-for-xr/page/contact-the-action-network-data-team)
