WHAT’S THE PLAN?
In collaboration with local resistance groups, we’ll set up camp near Ffos-y-fran and the site of the proposed new mine from Saturday 30th April to Wednesday 4th May, over the May bank holiday weekend.
The camp will be an inclusive and empowering space, a base to host a programme of workshops and trainings, a launchpad for action and a chance to build the kind of just, democratic and sustainable community we want to see.
Read all the important logistical information in the camp booklet!
What should I bring to the camp?
- A tent, warm sleeping bag and roll mat
- Some water (if you can)
- Warm and waterproof clothes and shoes
- Other normal camping gear (torch, toothbrush, spare pants…)
- Something red!!
- Banners and flags for camp beautification
- Some cash (if you can) for donations to the camp and kitchen
Don’t bring food – it will be provided by a wonderful veggie/vegan kitchen for the whole duration!
Legal Advice
It’s hard to anticipate in advance what kind of interaction with police and the law we might experience on camp so its good to be prepared.
Green & Black Cross are providing legal support for the duration of the camp and action. There will be a legal support space to ask any questions and legal observer training on camp.
We recommend you check out the Green & Black Cross website for more information on interacting with the law during camp. This Netpol guide for anti-fracking protesters is also recommended reading.
Always remember Green & Black Cross’ basic rules for dealing with police:
