The period after an election is one of the best times to connect with your MSPs, MPs or local councillors. In their first few months in office, elected representatives are deciding what issues and priorities they want to focus on for the years ahead - making it the perfect opportunity to make your voice heard and support the causes you care about.
We’ll be joined by Hayley Wolcott from Young Sea Changers Scotland to explore how to communicate confidently with your representatives and speak up about the issues that matter to you. No issue is too small, after all, these people are elected to represent you! In partnership with the H&I Climate Collective.
