The Young Britons’ Foundation offers activists unrivalled access to speakers, campaign materials, legal support and practical advice together with regular campaign tips and insights at www.ybf.org.uk.
Speakers
In November 2003, The Young Britons’ Foundation launched the YBF Speakers Panel, a new programme to organise regular speaker meetings and tours of university campuses across Britain by a broad range of centre-right speakers, providing a platform for students to hear centre-right ideas and alternatives.
Schools, colleges and universities all too often fail to give students a chance to hear all sides of an argument: now, thanks to the YBF Speakers Panel, they have no excuse!
Further information about the YBF Speakers Panel is available here.
Campaign Materials
YBF provides students with a variety of campaign materials including campaign and recruitment posters for use at freshers’ fairs.
YBF can also provide bespoke campaign materials for students running campaigns that may be of interest to YBF and its supporters.
Students also have access to written, audio and visual materials that they will find useful in campaigns they may be running on campus and elsewhere.
In particular YBF works to support our brave troops, opposes wasteful spending, extremism and bias in students’ unions and in the National Union of Students and seeks a return to traditional conservative values.
Campaign Tips & Insights
The staff at the Young Britons’ Foundation are always willing to discuss aspects of campaign strategy or any other issues with activists. We are only a phone call away. Whatever the issue, YBF is willing and able to help – if you ask!
If you need specific mentoring as a prospective candidate or in your chosen career, the network of contacts developed by YBF is available to be exploited to your advantage.
YBF also runs bespoke workshops for candidates, agents, campaign managers and activists to hone their campaigning, fundraising, public speaking, debating, media and new media skills.
Legal Support
The Young Britons’ Foundation is aware that the law is not always adhered to by left-wing students’ unions, the National Union of Students, trades’ unionists or local authorities. Through its network of solicitors and barristers, YBF is able to help activists who need legal support when challenging the acts or omissions of politically motivated, left-wing agitators. Conservatives need no longer suffer in silence. Your first port of call is the YBF Legal Advice & Support Unit.
Activists are also encouraged to keep a close eye on the YBF website which contains regular campaign tips and insights.
Reading List & Bookstore
YBF has come forward with a Reading List, listing various newspapers, websites, blogs and, of course, books with which you ought to become familiar.
There is also an online Amazon bookstore through which you can purchase some of these books.
