Camp Frack in Blackpool


Weekend of 17th-18th September
Join the resistance to the “fracking” invasion! Stop the imminent expansion of shale gas extraction all around the UK! We need renewables - sacrificing our countryside for every last drop of of fossil fuel is crazy!
Camp Frack will be in the Blackpool/North Lancashire area near the ongoing exploratory drilling activities.
It will involve workshops on shale gas, and on planning the campaign against it. It will involve raising local awareness about the problems with shale gas and an action day of peaceful protest against the drilling activities currently in progress in the Blackpool area.
Register your interest by filling in the form at www.campaigncc.org/campfrack. We will send you more information as soon as it is available.

If you are interested in getting a coach from London then please tick the box. This will give us an idea of numbers and help us plan transport.
If you are able to spare a bit of time to help the camp run smoothly, tick the corresponding box and we will get in touch.
Camp Frack has already amassed interest from the media, including The Guardian and the Blackpool Gazette.
