BE PART OF THE ASSEMBLY
Redhills Assembly is an invitation to people and organisations already helping build stronger, fairer and more democratic communities.
Choose the ticket that’s right for you
We’re using Redhills’ three-tier approach so that cost doesn’t become a barrier to participation. Please feel free to select the free ‘Supported Place’ ticket – we want you in the room.
FREE – SUPPORTED PLACE
If you or your organisation don’t have £24 to spare, please choose this option. We’d much rather have you in the room. No questions asked.
£24 - COMMUNITY RATE
Our standard rate for community organisations, individuals and delegates.
£48 - SOLIDARITY RATE
If you or your organisation are better funded, please consider choosing our Solidarity Rate. Your contribution helps us provide free places for those who otherwise couldn’t afford to attend.
Your registration
We’ll ask for the essential information needed to manage your booking, including:
- Name and email
- Role
- Organisation
- Organisation location / postcode
- Day(s) attending
- Friday evening attendance
- Dietary requirements
- Access requirements
If you work for an organisation, we’ll also ask a few short questions about it. These are completely optional, so it’s up to you whether you answer them.
One purpose of the Assembly is to make something visible that we don’t currently see clearly enough: the collective scale, reach, assets, people, knowledge and economic contribution of the organisations already working across our communities.
We’ll therefore invite you to tell us a little about what your organisation does, who and where you work with, your people and assets, and what you might be able to offer – or need from - other organisations.
We’ll use ranges and tick boxes wherever possible.
The form should only take a few minutes.
We’ll ask separately whether you’d like your organisation to be part of future mapping, networking and collaboration after the Assembly.
Paying for your ticket
Pay securely by card using Stripe. If your organisation can’t pay by card, simply choose Request an Invoice when registering and we’ll send you the information required to arrange payment by bank transfer.
Capacity
In-person places are limited to a maximum of 250 participants. If we reach capacity, you’ll be able to join our waiting list and we’ll contact you if a place becomes available.
We are also planning for around 50 people to participate online, with the online offer designed to allow people who cannot be at Redhills to join the Assembly remotely.
JOIN. SHARE. EXPLORE. TEST. SHAPE.
WHY WE’RE ASKING ABOUT YOUR ORGANISATION
Making our collective strength visible
We know there is extraordinary work happening across our communities. What we don’t always see is the collective picture.
How many people do our organisations employ? How many volunteers give their time? How many buildings and community assets do we collectively own or manage? How much economic activity do we generate? What skills, knowledge and resources could we share?
And what might become possible if these organisations were better connected?
Information shared through registration will help us begin building a picture of the Coalfield Common Wealth that already exists - and identify what we need to build next.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER OCTOBER?
That’s partly for the Assembly to decide.
This isn’t intended to end when everyone goes home.
One of the most important questions for the Assembly is what we can do together that individual organisations cannot do alone.
We want to test whether organisations would benefit from continuing to meet, share and organise together after October - and, if so, what form that should take.
Possibilities might include peer support, community ownership, political education, shared evidence and mapping, collaboration on projects, community organising and building a stronger collective voice.
But we don’t want to design the answer in advance. The Assembly will help us test what would actually be useful, what participants want to build together and what role Redhills should play in supporting it.
The wider Redhills approach sees communities not as passive recipients of regeneration, but as active agents capable of rebuilding institutions, ownership, economic power and collective agency themselves.
