Solidarity Networks take a lot of hard work and dedication. Sometimes more than people are able to give. As a result, a lot have started and quickly folded.
I thought this might be a good place for folks to bring up problems they have had in getting a solidarity network off the ground.
Share your experiences, ask questions and find workable solutions.
The Glasgow Solidarity Network didn't get off the ground mostly as a lot of folk seemed to want to try and turn it into a 'broad left' campaigning organisation rather than something that focused on individual cases. I wasn't really involved but hearing form comrades who were attending meetings this seemed to be the case.
