About Make The March
Make The March is a project to support the TUC-organised We Demand Better march on 18 June 2022. We aim to help encourage creativity in protest, amplify individual stories of activism, and help people exercise their democratic rights in a fun and memorable way.
The project is co-ordinated by artist Guy Atkins, who was involved in Make The March’s support to the national demonstration For A Future That Works in 2012.
We are editorially independent of the We Demand Better march and the TUC, but supported by the TUC to run this project.
