 Elections are coming up, so why would you want to vote? For starters, if we don't vote, politicians don't listen. Politicians are in charge of so many things. Local schools, services, leisure centres, fin collections, posts and sites. If we all vote for politicians who will improve these things, we will all benefit. It's also important to know that you don't have to live in a house to vote. Travellers who live in a trailer can vote. Travellers who live on a site can vote. Travellers who live in a flat or house can vote. We can all vote. Registering to vote means giving yourself the option to get involved. You might wonder how to choose who to vote for. You can search what people or the parties they are part of have done online. It can be helpful to look for politicians who have helped people like you or who have the same beliefs that you do. Gypsy, Romance, Travellers, Votes Matter. And the more of us that vote, the better. Get your family involved, talk to your family, friends and other people you know about what voting means to you.
