Frequently asked questions

What form should my submission take?

This process has been designed to enable any party member or local group of members to take part.

While a ‘submission’ may sound formal or complex, it doesn’t have to be. While it’s always good to hear from people with particular expertise on a topic, you don’t have to be an expert to submit your ideas.

Some of the best policy ideas are formed out of people’s everyday lives, conversations on the doorstep, and personal experience of an issue.

Whether you’d like to submit just a few ideas or an anecdote, or something more formal, it’s really up to you.

How to get help

Our Policy Officer, Anna Birley is on hand to support you in making a submission, and in supporting local Parties to organise events.
