GUP UK

Build the founding chapter.

GUP UK is the first chapter, and it is early. That is the honest pitch — the people who join now shape what it becomes rather than inherit it.

What the chapter is building first.

In order, because the order matters. Each one is only possible because the one before it happened.

01

Registering the chapter

Legal footing first, so GUP UK can hold funds, employ people, and publish accounts under its own name.

02

The first enterprises

Real businesses in real markets. They fund the chapter, rather than the chapter depending on donation.

03

Local groups

People meeting in their own towns — the part that needs volunteers, and the reason this page exists.

Register your interest.

Supporters, volunteers, and partners — tell us where you are and what you would like to do, and the UK chapter will be in touch.

This is not a membership, a subscription, or a commitment. It is a way of being counted while the chapter is still being formed.

Roughly is fine — it only tells us where to start a local group.

We treat this as correspondence, not data. No list is sold, and nothing you send sits behind a login either.

What happens after that.

A person writes back

Not an autoresponder, and not a newsletter. Expect a few days rather than a few minutes.

We match you to what is starting near you

Where nothing is starting near you yet, we say so — and tell you what would have to be true for it to.

You can check our working

Everything the chapter raises and spends is published as open records, including the years before there is much to report.
