Parliament Week will run from Friday 15 to Thursday 21 November 2013.
Valerie said:
“Parliament Week is a wonderful initiative to enable people across the UK to understand Parliament and democracy.”
“This year Parliament Week focuses on Women in Democracy, celebrating women’s contribution to UK democratic life and exploring how women’s voices can be heard.”
“Over 200 organisations from across the UK are working in partnership with Parliament Week to put together a programme that includes historical walks, art exhibitions, online debate, panel discussions and more.”
“Schools are encouraged to take part in Parliament Week. There are specially created resources such as debate packs and assembly plans available from the Parliament Week website.”
