Resources

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. 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.

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.

scales-of-justiceLegal 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.

  • Week Twelve: Don’t Kick Yourself

    Politics is a bug. Once you catch the bug, it is rare a cure can be found. Even repeated electoral disasters cannot cure you of the disease (Ted Heath kept losing general elections but he was convinced he could have won in the late 1970s).
    There will be times when you will wish you attended an [...]

  • Week Eleven: Know Your Enemy

    In today’s hectic multimedia age, it is easy only to spend time reading blogs, websites or newspapers with whom you are in agreement. That is a very dangerous course for the conservative activist to take. It is imperative to be as well read as possible – not just so that you know what your opponents [...]

  • Week Thirteen: Ask Questions

    One of the wisest pieces of advice I have heard handed out to students comes from Patrick Coyle, the Vice-President of the Young America’s Foundation. Pat reminds student activists that while it is all well and good having views as to who should be the Republican Party’s nominee or what the basic rate of income [...]
