Delighted to support the #EnableTheVote Project in the Scottish Parliament today.
People with a learning disability are less likely to vote in elections than the general population.
The project aims to increase the democratic participation of people with learning disabilities.

It was my pleasure to sponsor the #EnableTheVote photocall and drop-in session at the Scottish Parliament.
@Enable_Tweets and @ElectoralCommUK want to ensure people who have a learning disability are informed about voting and, crucially, use their right to vote in elections.
