One of our successes over the past few years has been the increasing engagement of young people with the political parties and this year looks like being even better. The Political Party season kicks off in under a week so you need to hurry.
We will be repeating the successful 'Scouts Speak Up' sessions at this year's political party conferences. These events are a deliberative forum where four questions will be discussed in an interactive and informal format by young people in Scouting and MPs, Councillors and prospective parliamentary candidates.
These events are a great opportunity for young people involved in Scouting to have their say on the issues that matter to them and talk directly with those who seek to represent them. The events are as follows:
If you would like to come you can register to participate by emailing citizen@scout.org.uk with the conference you wish to attend and your postcode.
You can vote to decide the four topics that will be discussed at these events.
You can also help by encouraging your MP to attend by filling out our quick online form.
