Rachel for Chair of Young Labour

RACHEL FOR CHAIR OF YOUNG LABOUR Young Labour should be a place where young activists come together, make friends, develop their politics and campaign on issues that matter to them. I'm standing for chair because I love Young Labour, but I know that there is so much about it that can be better. We need to build a stronger grassroots movement, with better training and resources for our members and we need to be more accessible, with more affordable events. From coordinating Young Labour and Labour Students campaigning across Yorkshire during the general election, to helping set up Young Labour groups from Harrow to Southampton to Yorkshire, to bringing in a policy making process for London Young Labour, to setting up a trade union branch in my workplace, I have a strong record of working with members across the Young Labour movement. As chair I will ensure that Young Labour is a powerful voice within the party and a strong campaigning force for the party. During my campaign I have spoken to members across the country, whose thoughts and ideas have been invaluable in putting together this manifesto, and I want to thank all of you. " Rachel is one of the most hard working members out there; always ready to knock on doors, but she's also one of the most welcoming and friendly members I've ever met. She'd be an absolutely brilliant Young Labour chair - full of passion, energy and ideas." - Meg Evans, Secretary of Islington North CLP http://www.rachelforylchair.com/ https://www.facebook.com/RachelforYLchair/ @rachellybee / #BackingBarker 07716022476
