Hello there.

You may remember an email from a few months back, talking about a new-fangled ‘story-catching tool’ called SenseMaker.

Well, it’s live now. Ready. For you (yes, you!) to add your story.

The Systems Realignment team is cordially inviting all UK rebels, past and present, to add their story to the mix and help inform what XR does next.

Whether you think you have a yarn to spin or not, your story is a valuable piece of the puzzle.

We need as much input as we can get our mitts on, as many different stories – good, bad, hideously ugly – from as many rebels as humanly possible. What did it feel like to go to your first action? What happened in that Zoom meeting from hell? How has your team dealt with a challenge or conflict?

If you’d like to do something super helpful for XR, consider spending 20 mins contributing a story of your experience of this rag-tag, decentralised, messy movement.

In a time of reflection and (albeit enforced) quiet, we could really use your help to get this thing going. Share the link, share stories with your fellow rebels, especially those who have left XR or might not be on the mailing list.

There will be plenty of chances to see the results and spot patterns in our community story together. Join our Mattermost channel to be first in line for workshops and other sessions. Not a Mattermost-er? Not a problem, email [email protected].

But first, do you have 20 minutes to tell us a story?

This snazzy octopus may ring a bell.
