What We’re Doing
Movement of Movements
In XR we use non-violent direct action (NVDA) to persuade organisations to act on climate change. Other groups are working to similar goals with different methods. We often join together for actions and many of our members are also involved in these other groups.
Some of the groups we collaborate with in Birmingham are:
- Stop HS2
- Youth Strike for Climate
- COP26 Coalition West Midlands
- Kill the Bill
- Zero Hour (CEE Bill Alliance)

This is your reminder to join us for a striking action featuring a funeral procession with a coffin, funeral drummer, flower-laying, and costumes (think black clothes and top hats). Together, we’ll mourn what is being lost, then celebrate what could be saved with dancing, drumming and a joyful awakening of hope for the future.![]()
