Nusrat Ghani, MP for Wealden, is inviting Wealden residents to get involved in UK Parliament Week.
UK Parliament Week is an annual event taking place from 1-7 November, that engages people from across the country with the UK Parliament, explores what democracy means to them and empowers them to get involved. This year, the focus is on how small actions can lead to big changes, encouraging participants to get informed, take action and make an impact on issues they care about.
It is a fantastic opportunity for Wealden residents to further their understanding of the work their MPs do, both in Westminster and their constituencies. Those who sign up for UK Parliament Week will be sent a free kit packed with resources, including a booklet, bunting, a ballot box, a poster, stickers and more, which can be tailored for different organisations.

Nusrat Ghani said: “Every year I’m delighted to see so many Wealden residents and organisations take part in UK Parliament Week. Active public participation is vital in a thriving democracy, and UK Parliament Week is a great way to learn how you can make a difference. There are many exciting activities taking place and I would greatly encourage Wealden residents to get involved. Getting our young residents interested in the workings of our democracy is a vital part of my work as an MP. I’m always pleased to welcome Wealden students to Westminster and I’m looking forward to hosting more Wealden schools in Parliament this academic year.“
