About Me

Ever felt like the world is happening all around you but you don't know what to do?

A Little Less Conversation is a local magazine created for people who want find out how to live more sustainable lifestyles, learn about local issues or just discover new and interesting skills, (ones that aren't dictated to you by some fat guy in a suit or involve copious amounts of tie dye).

We are run as an open cooperative and are always looking for new people to bring fresh ideas to the table. If you're interested in getting involved, just drop us an email via this myspace.

The aim of the magazine is to empower ourselves and our communities to take more practical action - no matter how big or small - and be a part of making this world a slightly less crazy place to live. For everyone.

Campaigns

Launched to coincide with the bicentennial abolition of slavery, The Truth Isn't Sexy campaign aims to highlight the realities of sex trafficking and mobilise support for the few organisations working to support women who have been trafficked. Throughout the UK, TTIS Campaign Collective's are being set up to fundraise £2,500 in order to buy beer mats for at least 40 pubs in and around their home town. Designed to catch the viewers attention by imitating telephone box calling cards, one side portrays an enticing image whilst the other highlights the brutal reality of trafficked women.

For more info on the campaign, check out The Truth Isn't Sexy and come along to the Leeds TTIS fundraising events to show your support and have a good evening!
Following two Film & Food fundraisers at Moorish Cafe and an open mic at the Brudenell, over £450 has been raised! Thanks for all your support, and please keep checking back for details of future events.

My Interests

Each issue will include sections on travel, allotments (you know you want to), current affairs and a guide to up and coming events.

Please note; We understand MySpace is Murdoch owned and therefore not in keeping with our ethical outlook. However, a large part of creating this magazine was to make these issues as accessible as possible to all and after much discussion have decided to keep this profile in order to reach people we may not otherwise reach.

We are currently constructing our own website which can be found at www.alittlemoreaction.net , and can also be contacted at [email protected]

Please feel free to email us if you have any questions, suggestions or comments. Muchos gracias, The LLC Crew.

I'd like to meet:

People who want to get involved! Whether that's coming along to our events or becoming part of the cooperative.
