Join the Constituency Campaigner Programme

Oxfam's Constituency Campaigners are volunteer campaigners who are passionate about ending poverty and want to make their voice heard locally.

As a Constituency Campaigner, you might find yourself persuading your MP to turn up and vote for new legislation that will ensure more refugees can be reunited with their families or meeting with your MP to talk to them about why action on climate change matters to you. You'll be part of a wider movement of several hundred constituency campaigners who are taking similar action in constituencies up and down the UK. Together, you'll be making change happen.

Constituency Campaigners build relationships with and influence their MPs to help end global poverty and suffering. With support from us, you'll develop a strong knowledge of your MP's interests and use this to write tailored letters to them and perhaps occasionally to meet with them to discuss issues in-depth.

You'll be supported by Oxfam through a range of training and guidance. There's an induction to get you started, regular campaign briefings to help you write tailored letters, and monthly webinars on topics such as "how to influence your MP". We'll be in direct contact as much as possible to provide bespoke support, and when people want to, we'll link you up with others locally to work together.

The programme has a flexible time commitment – you can volunteer as a Constituency Campaigner on as little as just a few hours per month at a time that suits you.

It's an exciting way for passionate, tenacious people to play a critical role in ending poverty and suffering.

We are currently pausing recruitment until the Christmas period, when we will be running a new recruitment campaign and will be able to offer you all the training you need to get you started on the Programme.

In the meantime, there are many other ways to get involved in campaigning with us as well, and you can find those campaigning opportunities here.
