Welcome & Contacts

Democrats Abroad UK is a volunteer-led organization of Americans living in the UK who remain committed to promoting a Democratic legislative agenda in the United States, and to supporting Democratic candidates at every level of government.

Please check our website often for the latest events and activities, including debates, guest speakers, discussion groups, and documentary films. We invite you not only to participate in the many informative, purposeful events and activities on our schedule, but to help plan and organize them as well. You are welcome to attend meetings where such planning takes place.

Activities throughout the year focus on helping Americans regsiter to vote (www.VoteFromAbroad.org).

London is the hub of activity for Democrats Abroad UK, but we are steadily expanding beyond the capital. We have full-fledged chapters in Cambridge and Oxford, and activities happening all over the country. Our network of Regional Contacts act as local organizers for Americans, assist with voter registration, and initiate events to bring Americans together in their area. Local activities could be anything from occasional film screenings to monthly ‘Speakeasies.’ If you don’t see your area listed below, feel free to contact us and take the lead in organizing an event in your area.

Welcome to Democrats Abroad UK. We look forward to your active involvement. We hope you will:

*  Contact us: Find Democrats Abroad UK contact details listed below.

*  Read all about it. Keep up with our all our events and find out how you can help in our monthly e-Newsletter

  *  Join us! Membership is absolutely free. We’ll make sure you know what’s happening in your corner of the world - and never miss a voter registration deadline again!

Democratically yours,

Bill Barnard
Chair, Democrats Abroad UK
