What can I do?
If you think you might want to help, consider:
Local groups you can join
There are currently two 99% Groups you can join for support, and we are planning for more.
Since COVID, the groups have become virtual, which means that all group meetings are open to all members.
If you would like to join the ‘North/ West’ Group, please contact Helena Orlowski on helena.orlowski@99-percent.org
If you would like to join the ‘South / East’ Group, please contact Paul Bradford on paul.bradford@99-percent.org
You are welcome to join both!
