Welcome To Your Vote – 16-17 Year Olds (Video)

If you’re aged 16 or over and live in Scotland, you can now vote in Scottish elections. The next Scottish Parliament election takes place on Thursday 6 May 2021.

In order to vote at any election you must be registered to vote – the easiest way to register is to go online at www.gov.uk/register-to-vote

The closing date for applications to register to vote in the Scottish Parliament election on Thursday 6 May 2021 is at midnight on Monday 19 April 2021.

Pupils at Lasswade High School helped us make this short video to talk about the issues that affect them, as well as how you can register to vote and why it is important to cast your vote at elections.

Make sure you are registered now!
