Ask your Scottish Parliament candidates about Nature

Meet candidates from the five parties currently represented in Holyrood; hear what they would do for nature, biodiversity and wildlife if they are elected on 5 May; ask them your questions and tell them what you think is important.

This is a café-style event rather than a formal hustings. Candidates will circulate around tables giving the opportunity for in-depth and constructive conversations. Coffee and tea will be available.

The candidates are (in alphabetical order):

Hannah Bettsworth (Liberal Democrat)
Richard Corral (Scottish Labour)
Ben MacPherson (SNP)
Charles Kennedy (Scottish Conservative)
Lorna Slater (Scottish Green)

This event is organised in collaboration with the Edinburgh New Town Churches and the Scottish Environment LINK Wildlife Proclamation Campaign (which I run with a different hat on). For more information about the national Wildlife Proclamation campaign visit http://www.wildlifeproclamation.org.uk

This is an opportunity to show your representatives how important nature and biodiversity should be in political decision-making over the next five years of the Scottish Parliament. I hope lots of you are able to attend!
