The Red and Black is hosting an update on the legal situation around squatting, including how the English and Welsh squatting community has been affected by the law change last year and what’s still happening despite it!

We’re happy to welcome squatters from London who have been involved in the Eviction Resistance network and Squash – the Squatters Action for Secure Homes campaign and look forward to an update from these groups, and to discuss how we might have to unite again to stop the criminilastion of squatting in dissused commercial properties which has been proposed by some MP’s.

We also hope to update each other on the latest local squatting news from Cardiff, London and elsewhere, and bring in a discussion on how we can show solidarity with the hundreds of squatters evicted and arrested in Athens in the last few days.

Tea, coffee, biscuits and maybe a splattering of gack is likely to be available.

Come along on Sunday at 6pm to be a part of it!

Hope to see you there.

Love and rage – Lord C.Squeebington

We’re now meeting monthly and are hosting our first event, a Squatters/Travellers Workshop & Skillshare on Thursday 20th December at 3pm, at the Red & Black Umbrella.

This will be an hour discussing the law around squatting, recent changes, and how to still squat legally in commercial  buildings and on land. Followed by another hour skill-sharing how to occupy and secure spaces to live in/on.

We are currently organising events, planning projects, plotting against further criminalisation, setting up a squatters estate agents, and creating a support network for people currently squatting and for others interested in doing so.

Contact us at cardiffsquatters@riseup.net to get involved.
Find us at www.cardiff.squat.net to stay updated.
Love & Rage!
