Elect Her

Elect Her

We’re building a world where 51% (or more!) of elected officials are women! We are a non-partisan organisation working to motivate, support and equip women in all their diversity to stand for political office, in Britain, and thrive once there. We demystify the process of standing for elected office, and support women at each stage of their political journey, with knowledge, confidence and skills. There are four stages and different approaches needed at each - we have training, workshops, online resources and community for women targeted at each stage: 1. Getting Started in Politics – The nuts and bolts of understanding democracy, we make it easier to navigate with online resources and advice. 2. Ready To Get Involved – Working out how and where you want to take the next steps to participate in politics...we have training, workshops, online resources and community to help. 3. Selection & Election – Taking the plunge and standing for something is a big deal whether with a party or as an independent, we'll skill you up for your campaign, alongside providing peer-to-peer support and advice clinics. 4. In Elected Office - We want women to thrive as an elected representative, a global survey last year of politicians demonstrated that the key things on politicians wish lists were: coaching, mentoring, peer-to-peer support, training and therapy - and we work to help provide those.
