Events Programme

Twilight Talks on a Tuesday

On Tuesdays from 6th March to 3rd April we are hosting a series of Twilight Talks where you can meet representatives of the main parties seeking election to the City of Edinburgh Council on 3rd May to create an opportunity for open and honest dialogue between the city’s Third Sector and those seeking our votes.

Edinburgh’s Third Sector Interface would like to invite you to join us for a frank discussion about our aspirations for the City Council after the May elections and the candidates’ intentions for the next four years. These events build on and take forward our work to develop a Manifesto for Council Elections 2012.

These twilight talks will run according to the agenda below, on the dates scheduled below, at EVOC offices at 14 Ashley Place. As spaces are limited, please do take a moment to book your place at one or more of the events.
We have purposely invited each of the five main parties individually to encourage an open exchange of views between candidates and the city’s diverse Third Sector.

Spaces are limited, and available on a first come, first served basis, so please book your place at one or more of these events by emailing Dianne Morrison with ‘Twilight Talks’ in the subject line. We will confirm your place by email.
