Democracy Drinks - Edinburgh
Join us for the May edition of Democracy Drinks – an informal regular gathering to make connections, share ideas, and find inspiration over your drink of choice.
It's an election special with the date coinciding with the Scottish Parliament elections. Polling stations will open at 07:00 and close at 22:00 so there's time to get in your vote afterwards.
Whether you’re working on democratic innovation, citizen participation, policy, or simply care about democratic life in Scotland, join us for friendly conversation. All welcome and drop in when you can.
If you have any questions, please contact Kelly McBride or Paul Hirmis at Involve.
