A fund aimed at encouraging more disabled people to participate in politics and stand as local Councillors in the 2017 local government elections has been launched, with applications open until May 2017.
The Access to Elected Office Fund Scotland will help to cover additional costs for accessible transport or communications support for disabled people who wish to stand for selection or election next year.
For further information on the fund and details on how to apply, please visit the Inclusion Scotland website.
