The UK is holding a General Election on the 12 December to decide who will form a Government and make laws that affect you.
The UK Parliament is offering a number of ways that you can learn more about voting, democracy, and why it matters to you.
How you can get involved
Register to vote or change your details using the register to vote website. It usually takes about 5 minutes and you need your National Insurance number.
Register by midnight on 26 November to vote in the General Election on 12 December.
Visit the UK Parliament and take a tour of one of the world’s most iconic buildings. From 11 November 2019, UK residents can book a free guided tour by contacting us directly.
We’re also offering you the opportunity to wander at your own pace and explore Parliament after dark with Wednesday Lates!
In addition, if you’re aged 16-24 all tours are free over the election period!
Come to a free session to explore how Parliament makes law, debates the issues of the day and challenges the work of Government. This talk will explain what an election is and why your vote matters.
We will try to answer any questions you have about Parliament, so come prepared.
Spaces are limited so book your place in advance.
