Recent opportunities to take action
If you're (re)starting a local EA group or running a local EA event, consider reaching out to people nearby according to the people directory or an EAG Swapcard.
There will be people who do not know about a local group or event and otherwise wouldn't hear about it, and it's pretty painless on both ends! Obviously don't spam them, so (probably) only do this when (re)starting. I did this for an EA Edinburgh event and immediately got some responses.
To make this easier: Put your (approximate) location on the people directory so people can tell you about nearby events and you get them suggested by the forum, especially if you're not in a hub!
