Handouts
Caring For You Community in Crisis
Here we have a pamphlet you can print out and share in your local area, it prompts people to consider how connected their neighbourhoods are should a crisis hit.
Community Building Bingo
Challenge your group to a game of Community Building Bingo a great activity for Local Groups, Community Groups, Neighbourhoods and Friends! Fill in the blanks to personalise it and see who hits a BINGO first!
Zines
Zines are little pamplets filled with information. As a format they have a rich history in activism and the use of printed media like this opens our resources up to a much wider audience in a really fun and accessible way!
Consider where you could put a zine like this:
- Maybe pin one to your local notice board?
- Does your library or cafe have a table of leaflets you can add them to?
- Are there any community organisations in your area you could share them with?
- Keep some in your bag as a gift for anyone you start an interesting conversation with.
To fold the zine formats check out this guide.
