Jersey’s sixth annual ‘Democracy Week’ – 20-27 September

Jersey’s sixth annual ‘Democracy Week’ kicks off on Saturday 20 September, launching a week-long series of events aimed to inspire, inform and engage Islanders about politics in Jersey.

With the election less than nine months away, several events are focused on voting and encouraging Islanders to consider the local issues that will influence their votes next year.

There is also an opportunity for individuals considering standing for election to attend an event where they can hear from both the Greffier of the States and current States Members about the practicalities of holding public office.

From free public tours to film screenings and pop-ups, there is something for everyone, including:

• A screening of the Suffragette movie, Jersey Museum
• #PlanToStand breakfast event for potential election candidates
• ‘People Power’ Exhibition, Royal Square
• Guided tours of the States Chamber
• Political history walking tours of St. Helier
• Pop-up stands around the Island
• Constituency Drop-Ins (speak to your elected representatives)
• States Assembly Podcasts (choose from 17 episodes)
