Our next session in conjunction with Mayo County Council is specifically for women from County Mayo and begins on Thursday, November 7th and concludes on Thursday, November 14th with a choice of either a 10am or 8pm workshop.
Secondary Schools' Workshops
As part of our political education series, we can deliver a bespoke presentation for students from senior classes to encourage them to critically engage with See Her Elected’s work and the outcomes from having Council Chambers that do not reflect what the communities they represent look like. It's a fantastic opportunity to get students thinking about why the current status quo needs to change.
