Delivered by a local education officer from the Westminster Parliament, these bespoke workshops aim to engage community and youth groups with understanding how Parliament works, its relevance to everyday life and, most importantly, signposting different strategies to get involved and participate in democratic processes.
All workshops are free of charge and can be delivered online or in-person. The organisation will cover all their own travel costs and also have a modest budget for refreshments and venue hire.
