Citizens UK
Citizens UK describes itself as "the hub of community organising in the UK."〔http://www.citizensuk.org/about-main/〕 It started as London Citizens in 1996, and came to national prominence during the United Kingdom general election, 2010 when all three leaders of the UK's three largest political parties addressed a large meeting of its members in what it billed as the "fourth debate", in reference to the three TV debates. The event was notable for Gordon Brown giving what was widely described as his best speech of the campaign.〔''The Guardian'', 4 May 2010, (General election 2010: Brown worst prime minister ever – Labour candidate )〕〔''The Guardian'', 3 May 2010, (General election 2010: Battered Gordon Brown finds his voice )〕
== History of Citizens UK ==
Citizens UK has been promoting community organising in the United Kingdom since 1989. Neil Jameson, the Executive Director, founded Citizens after training with the Industrial Areas Foundation in the USA. Citizens UK, formerly the Citizens Organising Foundation (COF), has established citizens’ alliances in Wales, Birmingham, Milton Keynes, Nottingham, Leeds and London. Alliances in other cities are in the pipeline. Citizens UK, initially known as London Citizens, has grown from a single city-based organisation to a nationwide community organising institution.
Others had a less enduring run lasting roughly 3 years when COF was unable to finance them any longer.
Along with its geographical expansion, Citizens UK is in the process of forming increasing numbers of professional community organisers. It has created a Master’s course in Community Organising in affiliation with Queen Mary University, establishing the profession of ‘Community Organiser’ through the Guild of Community Organisers teaching the disciplines of strategy and politics.〔http://www.geog.qmul.ac.uk/admissions/masters/programmes/community/index.html〕
