Honestly, who gives an X about the local elections today?
We do. A lot.
So much so that we’ve been working once again with the amazing team at on – a non-partisan drive to inspire as many young people as possible to register to vote.
Too many young people have been made to feel like they don’t know enough about politics to put an X on a ballot paper. We set out to change that. Because whoever you are, you’re an expert in your own life and experiences. That’s as big a reason to vote as any, because politics is about you and your life.
This year’s campaign has built on the unprecedented success at the 2024 general election and contributed to the highest number of 16 to 24-year-olds registering for any local election year on record!
That’s what we mean when we talk about impact communications (nothing like an election to shape some history).
So today, this afternoon, this evening, to every young person (and every not-so-young person, for that matter): get down to that polling station before 10 pm and make them give an X about you!
