We are aware of planned protest activity taking place throughout June 2026, being promoted as a coordinated Month of Action by campaign groups including Boycott Bloody Insurance and Bank Better.
According to publicly available information, the campaign is encouraging participation from local groups, community organisations, and networks across the UK. Their stated aim is to build momentum against financial institutions that associate with or linked to arms, migrant detention, and the situation in Palestine.
The campaign seeks to encourage organisations and employees to move away from these institutions and switch to what they describe as more ethical financial providers.
Planned Activity: Campaign messaging indicates a wide range of actions may take place during June, including: - Picketing and physical protests - Demonstrations outside business premises - Letter-writing campaigns and petitions - Educational events and awareness sessions - Social media activity and video campaigns
Activity may occur at both large and smaller locations, and organisers are actively encouraging widespread participation.
Advice for Businesses:
- Review your security arrangement for the duration of June - Consider increasing visible patrols and monitoring at your premises - Report any suspicious activity to our control room
At present we do not have any information on where the protests are likely to take place, we will continue to monitor and advise accordingly.
