Outside the Box:
Our Vote, Our Voice
Outside the Box has been working with people who have learning difficulties. We have been making an information pack about elections. It is now available to download online HERE!
The pack has:
-
Information about making choices, finding out who is in charge, voting and
keeping in touch with the people you elected -
a list of useful contacts
-
ideas that other people and groups have tried
-
a glossary of difficult words
There are a set of posters.
There will also be a DVD about voting which will be available in January 2008.
You can help us by downloading HERE and using the resources, and by telling us what you think about them.
We also want to hear about how you have used the pack. There is a survey you can fill in.

In the New Year (January 2008) we will have printed copies of the pack and the DVD will be ready! You can put your name down for copies now! There will be no charge for the pack or the DVD.
