Welcome!
The Radical Association is a group of grassroots campaigners united by a shared belief that the future for the Liberal Democrats lies in promoting a distinctive, radical and unapologetically liberal vision for Britain's future.
Only by offering real, bold solutions for Britain's problems can the rising threat of right-wing populism and fascism can be defeated. We work to promote these values both within and outside of the Liberal Democrats.
What we do
As an organisation we work with our members to achieve change in three key ways: Policy. Values. Activism.
Policy
We campaign and lobby for the Liberal Democrats to adopt radical, progressive policies to address the problems facing modern society.
Not just at a Westminster level but also within devolved governments and in local government across the UK where the party's elected representatives and members often have the power to make a real and direct difference in people's lives, no matter what happens in Westminster.
In particular we focus on influencing party policy through policy paper working groups and at conference, through holding policy discussions and providing guides on how to implement and argue for bold, radical policies at a local level.

Activism
Policy and values are meaningless if they can't be translated into action, both in our communities and in government at all levels. That's why the Radical Association works to help like-minded Liberal Democrats with winning elections, campaigning in their communities and implementing radical policies in government at all level.
This ranges from producing guidance and resources to offering advice and endorsements in elections, as well as support for people seeking to make a difference through radical campaigns in their local communities.
All of this is built on our supporters and volunteers providing mutual support to each other, because solidarity and likeminded people coming together to achieve shared goals is always the best way to make a difference in the world.
