Campaign

Scavenger Labs contributed to The Iron People programme led by Northern Broadsides through workshops and public outputs in Todmorden.

At Todmorden College, Mick Chesterman ran a campaign workshop with students exploring environmental themes, particularly flooding. Steve Summers recorded audio contributions from participants, capturing local stories and campaign ideas developed during the sessions.

This material was developed into campaign content and presented as part of the Gush / Trickle showcase event at Gordon Rigg Garden Centre, Walsden.

Making the Family Fixit Campaign with Ferney Lee School. A group of campaigners, artists and educators came together with the schoolchildren and staff at the school to create an environmental campaign to reduce waste.

This report describes what we did and what was valuable about the processes we used. It is aimed at other educators who may want to take inspiration from our activities and perhaps reuse them in their own way. The report covers the three main phases of the project

• Phase One - Fun and active workshops with recycled waste
• Phase Two- Social Action workshops to create a campaign
• Phase Three - Communicating the Campaign
