UK Parliament Week 1-7 November

Year 12 & Year 13




UK Parliament Week is taking place from 1-7 November and we’re organising three FREE virtual events for students. The aim of both events is to make politics more accessible and engaging, and encourage young people to be active citizens. UK Parliament Week is a great opportunity to show young people that they have a voice and that there are lots of ways they can use their voices to speak up on the issues that matter to them and their communities.
