How to keep updated on progress of B4E and keep Networking Group updated if not on Facebook/Twitter.
Paul to send everyone link to Networking Group Loomio site DONE.
There is already a daily update from the B4E Loomio site, but I think you need to be signed up with an account to get it sent automatically- PLEASE ALL CHECK
Discussed about how useful and enlightening it is to join Leave groups, to gain insight.
ALL- consider doing this and engaging positively with Leavers and trying to build bridges and persuade. FYI- I am a member of “Get Britian Out” and Leave.EU on Facebook.
Discussed about the organisation- “European Movement for Bath and Bristol”
Question for Steering Group- Considering they are also named as Bath and Bristol, is there mileage is asking to merge to gain a larger mass of members
Discussed about involvement more face to face.
The “Stall” in town, we think is limited to 12-2pm, if it could be extended to longer hours, it may gain more volunteers as they can be available at different times.
Is it possible to go door to door with our message, for those willing to do so, are there any council restrictions?
Discussed with Alice Sibley (very engaged Uni student) about how the older age group can link with the younger to gain greater mass and on message.
Julie to link up with Alice and gain insight and utilise some of the Bristol for Europe characters
Next Meeting date
Paul to circulate a form asking for availability late January for us to meet again.
Discussed about Steering Group attendance.
So far no one has attended Steering Group. Paul has volunteered but needs a deputy as cannot always attend. Therefore Paul will gain the dates from B4E and circulate in the group asking for volunteers, when he cannot attend.
