About this Event

Disabled People’s Question Time – Scotland 2026

Disabled People’s Question Time aims to promote meaningful dialogue between disabled voters and those seeking to represent them in the Scottish Parliament.

Grounded in Inclusion Scotland’s manifesto demands, this event will provide a platform for 2026 parliamentary candidates from Scotland’s five main political parties to respond directly to questions submitted by disabled people. The discussion will centre disabled people’s priorities and lived experience, ensuring they are placed at the heart of political debate and decision-making.

The event will bring together disabled voters, candidates and stakeholders to explore key issues affecting disabled people in Scotland, and to examine how political commitments translate into action.

  • Labour candidate
  • Gillian Mackay (Scottish Greens)
