Local groups

How can Friends of the Earth local groups contact supporters in their area?
14 April 2011

Friends of the Earth runs a subsidised postal mailing service which local groups can use to send information to other supporters in their area. For example to invite supporters to join the group, or to tell them about particular actions or events they have planned.

To make sure we're not contravening any data protection laws, we don't give out our supporters' details to our local groups. Instead, we administer the mailing on behalf of the group, with them providing us with the item to send out and paying a contribution towards postage costs.

If your group wants to use this mailing service, please go to our mailing other local supporters page to read the guidance and find out what to do next.

For general advice on recruiting more group members, read the People chapter in the Local Group Handbook.
