The Climate Emergency Centres (CECs) are transforming empty buildings into vibrant, community-run hubs across the UK.

Each centre is a self-funding, inspirational space where local people, grassroots groups, and campaigners can come together to share skills, ideas, and resources in the face of climate and social crises.

From food co-ops to climate cafés, CECs offer places of resilience and connection, building the networks we’ll all need to weather the storms ahead.

The network of Climate Emergency Centres is growing and well connected.”By creating a network of centres in cities across the UK, we aim to share resources, skills, and ideas to strengthen resilience and adapt to social and environmental challenges”.

They joined Media Revolution because the media too often frames community responses as fringe or irrelevant — CECs know the truth: people everywhere are building the future from the ground up.

CEC were kind enough to host Liz from Media Revolution to present a webinar to their network in July 2025.

The Planet Project is building a global movement for an ecological civilisation.

They bring together people, organisations, and campaigns around a shared vision: a world where human culture thrives in harmony with the living systems of Earth.

With resources, research, and tools for connection, The Planet Project works to reach tipping points of awareness and participation that can shift the trajectory of humanity. Their mission is nothing less than to help co-create a planetary culture rooted in cooperation and care.

They joined Media Revolution because a planetary shift cannot happen without transforming how stories are told.

Just Stop Oil was a highly effective nonviolent civil resistance campaign demanding that the UK government immediately halt all new oil, gas, and coal projects.

Known for bold, high-profile actions that forced the climate crisis into public consciousness, Just Stop Oil made sure the scale of the emergency could not be ignored.

Though they might have “hung up their high-vis,” they remain active in supporting court cases faced by activists, while staying deeply connected across the direct action space.

Their website calls out “Media shifting blame from their mates on mega yachts to the people in small boats”.

Their influence continues to ripple through movements and strategies for climate justice.

Just Stop Oil joined Media Revolution because the climate crisis is also a media crisis — too often downplayed, distorted, or ignored – and the activists who work tirelessly to raise awareness of this existential threat get treated as extremists by malignant media.

Just Stop Oil knows that without honest reporting, society cannot make the choices needed to secure a liveable future.

We thank Just Stop Oil for their support – and look forward to working with them for Media Liberation Day and beyond.

Since the phone hacking scandal first exposed systemic wrongdoing and corruption at the heart of Britain’s press and police, Hacked Off have been at the forefront of campaigning for a press that is both free and accountable.

Born out of the fight for justice for ordinary people whose private lives were violated — teachers, parents, children, as well as public figures — the campaign has become the leading voice for victims of press abuse.

https://www.hackedoff.org/

Hacked Off continue to challenge press malpractice and lobby for reform, ensuring the Leveson recommendations are not forgotten and that new legislation delivers proper standards, independent regulation, and redress for those wronged. Their work is not about silencing the press, but protecting it from its own abuses — restoring the trust that journalism needs in order to serve democracy.

This mission takes on fresh urgency in autumn 2025, with ITV’s The Hack. Written by the team behind Mr Bates vs the Post Office and starring David Tennant and Robert Carlyle, the drama will shine a spotlight on the phone hacking scandal and the continuing cover-ups that have denied justice to victims. Just as Mr Bates transformed public awareness of the Post Office scandal, The Hack has the potential to reignite the national conversation about media corruption and the urgent need for reform.

Hacked Off joined Media Revolution because transforming the media is not just about exposing today’s failings in accurate reporting, silencing of marginalised voices or billionaire control — it is also about ensuring that ordinary people – and public figures elevated by the media and torn down the next – are never again left voiceless in the face of systemic abuse by the press itself.

Watch this space for their upcoming campaign – and sign up to their mailing list to keep up the fight for a better media.
