We want to make sure everyone has an amazing experience at Reclaim the Power so we’ve pulled together a really exciting programme of workshops, discussions and speakers as well as preparing to take action
Given the phenomenal range of groups and individuals Reclaim the Power is bringing together, we hope everyone will use it as an opportunity to explore a new issue or learn a fresh skill.
We look forward, especially, to welcoming people from the local area to participate in our programme.
