WHAT DOES GETTING INVOLVED MEAN?

Whether you want to get involved, or want to find out more about XR have a look here. Most of the day to day communication is done through WhatsApp – again, if you join a WhatsApp group you can leave whenever you want to. We don’t store any personal information once you unsubscribe from an email list or a WhatsApp group.

If you want to get involved there are several things you can do, here are 10 ways of getting involved with XR H&F climate activism:
