WHEN: Sunday September 27th 10am-4pm.

We'll be doing a morning doorknock from 10am till 12pm and afternoon doorknock 2pm till 4pm.

Includes a free lunch for volunteers.

Join us for the whole day or just a few hours - whatever you can pitch in, you'll be helping ensure that our campaign is successful!

Never doorknocked before?

No worries! We'll start with a short training before we head out, and you'll be paired with an experienced volunteer. We won't throw you in the deep end, and there will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions along the way.

Our experienced volunteers will go at your pace. If you're not ready to lead conversations, that's completely okay. Many people spend their first doorknock supporting their partner by recording responses and notes on the clipboard, watching how conversations work, and building their confidence. When you're ready, we'll support you to take that next step.

We'll meet together first, go through everything you need to know, and then head out in pairs. There will be opportunities to take breaks, grab some water, or check in if you need to. At the end of the afternoon, we'll come back together to debrief and celebrate the conversations we've had.

What to bring

• Comfortable walking shoes

• Weather-appropriate clothing (warm layers, raincoat or umbrella if needed, or a hat if it's sunny)

• A water bottle

• Any snacks, medication, or accessibility items that help you have a comfortable afternoon

If you have any accessibility requirements, questions, or would like to chat beforehand about whether the event will work for you, please get in touch. We'll do our best to make sure you can take part.
