These exercises are for you. Nobody has to share their answers.
1 An issue that matters to you
Write down one local issue you care about. Which level or body do you think decides it? How could you check?
2 Your own map
Fill in what you know about the bodies that cover where you live. Leave blanks for what you need to look up.
| Body (for example, council or school board) | What it handles | Website or contact |
|---|---|---|
3 Before you contact anyone
Tick each one as you do it.
- I have found my local government’s website
- I know whether I need an explanation (staff) or a change (elected members)
- I have written down my question in one or two sentences
- I know where meeting dates are posted
- I know where my official election office is
