As the General Election in the UK draws near, The Parish Trust is excited to announce a Hustings Event scheduled for Thursday, 27th June at 7pm. This significant event will take place at The Parish Trust HQ and offers an invaluable opportunity for the residents of the Caerphilly Constituency to engage directly with their political candidates.
Get Involved and Have Your Say
The Parish Trust is committed to empowering the community and ensuring everyone can live life as fully as possible. Recognising that politics plays a crucial role in shaping our daily lives, the charity is hosting this hustings event to provide a platform for open dialogue. Attendees will have the chance to sign up and potentially ask their questions directly to the candidates standing for election in the Caerphilly Constituency.
Who Will Be There?
All candidates standing for election in the Caerphilly Constituency have been invited to participate. If a candidate is unable to attend, they have been asked to nominate a substitute from their party to represent them. This ensures that a broad range of views and policies will be discussed, providing attendees with a comprehensive understanding of their choices in the upcoming election.
A Politically Neutral Platform
It’s important to note that The Parish Trust maintains a stance of political neutrality. The charity’s primary aim is to facilitate an environment where community members can voice their concerns, ask pertinent questions, and make informed decisions. This event is a testament to The Parish Trust’s dedication to fostering informed and active citizenship.
Meet the Host
Rev. Dean Aaron Roberts, the CEO of The Parish Trust, will host the evening. Speaking ahead of the event, he said,
“At The Parish Trust, we believe in the power of community engagement and informed citizenship. Being a charity based in Caerphilly, hosting this Hustings Event is our way of ensuring that everyone in the Caerphilly Constituency has the opportunity to voice their concerns and engage directly with their candidates. We aim to foster a respectful and open dialogue that empowers our community to make informed decisions in the upcoming General Election.”
Rev. Dean has previously hosted a hustings event in the 2019 General Elections, which was attended by over 100 constituents.
How to Attend
If you are interested in attending the Hustings Event, you can sign up to secure your spot and be in with a chance to ask your question to the candidates. This is a unique opportunity to directly engage with those who seek to represent you, and to gain insights into their policies and visions for the future of Caerphilly.
Why This Event Matters
The Parish Trust believes that every individual should have the opportunity to engage with the political process and understand the implications of their vote. By hosting this Hustings Event, the charity aims to break down barriers between the electorate and their potential representatives, promoting transparency, accountability, and active participation in the democratic process.
