Jump on board!
I was on the campaign trail with Respect councillors, candidates and supporters yesterday, and I am about to do the same today, so got to be quick!
All our canvassers reported the feedback on the doorstep was extremely positive. And this was certainly my experience. I concentrated in going door to door in the Moseley and Kings Heath ward and was really heartened by the level of name recognition and warmth of response that I received.
Respect election campaigns in Birmingham are always exciting and fun to be part of. But I feel this one is going to be extra special!
We are out every day. Anybody who wants to help out, can do. Please get in touch by calling 078 121 72885. It does not matter if you have never done this kind of thing before, it’s easy to pick up, and has someone once said, ‘history is made by the first timers’! Feel free to just jump on board and be part of the team!!
