Use your vote, use your voice

Vote today to get your voice heard

Today is the 2024 general election. In the UK, voters will determine who will form the next government in Westminster. Voting is an essential part of democratic participation and ensures the government is accountable to citizens. Through the act, voters grant the winning party a mandate to govern.  

We want to encourage all our readers who are able to get out and vote. To find your nearest polling station (which will be open 7am-10pm), click here.

You can read what the main parties are proposing about:

• arts and culture
• education and early careers
• and youth voice. 

Remind your friends and family to vote

Please make sure to remind your friends, family, colleagues and classmates to go and vote today too. Why not offer to be an accountability partner to encourage someone to vote who might be unlikely to do so?
