As a general election draws nearer and with a new Tory government in place, join Campaign Lab for a day of hacking! 

We'll be working on political data science challenges and designing, developing and testing election tech and campaigning innovations for the left. 

All technologists, activists, organisers and campaigners, are welcome! We also welcome any new people who are interested in politics and technology and evidence based campaign innovation.

All you need is to bring yourself and a laptop - everyone welcome!

Following our Hack Day we'll be running a series of bi-weekly 

 leading to a final showcase of our projects in the new year!

Campaign Lab is a community of politically-minded progressive data scientists, researchers and activists who are working together to build new election tools and change the way we analyse and understand political election campaigning.

Any questions, thoughts or ideas - do get in touch and say hi!

Campaign Lab Hack Day

Are you a Civic Pragmatist trying to engage Loyal National voters? Or are you a Disengaged Traditionalist frustrated by Progressive Activists? Understanding different segments’ values and learning why people think the way they do can bring different people together. How can your campaigns benefit from understanding public values and psychological segmentation? What messaging can bridge the gaps between different groups?

Join Charlotte Butterick, Programmes and Partnerships Manager at 

 for an introduction to their segments and advice on how you can use them practically to reach more people in your campaigns!

Engaging the Seven Segments: An introduction to using More In Common segmentation in campaigning

Over the last 6 months there has been a breakthrough in powerful new AI technologies, from Stable Diffusion to ChatGPT. These new tools will undoubtedly impact campaigning in all sorts of ways, from automatically drafting text, creating and editing images and video, analysing data and more. How can we use these tools in campaigning? How could they improve the way we work? Join us for an exploratory session as we put these new tools to the test! 

In this workshop, you'll get hands-on experience with the latest AI technologies and explore how you might use them in your campaign work. You'll learn about prompt engineering and how to effectively guide the output of AI tools to get the results you want.

These tools are so new that nobody is an expert, and you don’t need to be able to code to access them, so all activists, organisers, and campaigners are welcome!

This is a practical workshop for people working in campaigning who are curious about how recent advances in AI tools might affect their work. You can attend in person, or remotely. To participate, you will need a laptop & charger, and a smartphone. The workshop is free, but we’d be grateful for a small donation to cover catering & heating.
