Another way of locating constituency and other territorial pro-Europe groups is to use the twelve 48% index groups on Facebook. These are supposed to be just lists of constituency and regional and other groups. Each one has a linked discussion group. These “discussion groups” are for posting items of general interest, but especially messages about events and campaigns for onward transmission into all the groups in that region. Become a member of these groups and your reach is extended a good deal. Here are the Index groups:

EXAMPLES
of constituencies that have been filled out with detailed maps that helped with past by-election campaigns are :
​
Richmond Park (yay!)
in the London region.
We may not have time to get everywhere in this degree of cartographic detail, but street lists already help enormously when organising door to door work, and you can easily assemble these.
in Cumbria - rural constituencies like these need a different treatment.
In early 2017 UKPEN collaborated with Vote for Europe to produce a version of the Vote for Europe guide to producing campaign maps. Much of the advice worked out at that time is still relevant, and you can download the document here:
EXAMPLES
of constituency pages showing how they can be used to keep track of local MPs' performance are the East London constituencies eg Hackney North and Stoke Newington, Hackney South and Shoreditch. See how the constituency page is just the beginning. You can ask for a link to be inserted to your group's pages and files, or you can become an editor and insert updates on the relevant UKPEN page. New Google Sites is the basis for the UKPEN sites and is very simple and straightforward to use.
