Camp Frack will take place adja­cent to the UK’s first frack­ing oper­a­tions at Sin­gle­ton, near Black­pool (near­est train sta­tion Poul­ton Le Fylde). It will be organ­ised with the sup­port of a local farmer who is pro­vid­ing the land. It will involve locals, grass­roots groups, indi­vid­u­als and NGO’s in work­shops and dis­cus­sions on shale gas and on form­ing effec­tive UK wide resis­tance against it. It will involve rais­ing local aware­ness about the prob­lems with shale gas and an action day of protest against the drilling activ­i­ties cur­rent­ly in progress in the Black­pool area.

More details will be cir­cu­lat­ed in August regard­ing venue etc. To be kept up to date or for any ques­tions email campfrack@gmail.com
