Welcome to XR

Hello and Welcome!

You may have been motivated to join Extinction Rebellion (XR) because you've decided that you must take action now. Or maybe you simply want to find out more about us before becoming involved. Still, taking that first step can be a challenge. Thank you for being here.

Worried about what joining us might mean you need to do? This 1.44 minute video made by a new member - Shelley - might help reassure some of you.

Within XR we acknowledge that our increasing awareness of what we're all facing can sometimes lead to feelings of anxiety and sadness and that many struggle with these emotions. For some, making connections with others experiencing the same thing helps hugely; we are not alone anymore. Joining in, and trying to be part of the solution, is empowering and liberating. Action brings hope.

XR is a family with lots of support available when it’s needed. There are XR support groups as well as courses and support from the Regenerative Cultures Team. You can find these resources in a number of places, but the chapter of this book 'Our Culture - care and respect' is a good place to start.

Live Welcome to XR talks on zoom

The talk takes place every Tuesday evening from 7-8.30pm. You're warmly invited to stay until 9pm as we allow 30 minutes for questions and discussions after the session.

Alernatively, you can watch a Video recording - Welcome to XR! [10th May 2023]
