First Step to Stand

Falkirk Council, is holding a workshop to encourage women in Falkirk to get more involved in local democracy. Whether you’re up for making a change in your local community or you want to put yourself forward to be a councillor, come along and find out more about how to get involved.

• Hear from inspirational women in local politics to discover if becoming a councillor is right for you and how to get there, whilst building a supportive community in the process.
• There is no set job description for a councillor. As a councillor no two days are the same.
• Being a councillor is all about giving back to your community, bringing your energy and hard-working attitude, getting stuck in and making a real difference - to local people and to wider society.
• Being a councillor is an amazing way to give back to your local community. Bring your energy, learn new things and make a real difference to people’s lives.
• There are lots of different ways you can be involved in local democracy - come along and think about what way is right for you.

There’ll be a warm welcome and a room of other local women who share a passion for community. You’ll hear from women in elected office in your local council, and you’ll be inspired to think about what difference you want to make.

Come together with your women in your community to lead the change in politics. Book your space now and further information will be shared shortly.
