St John's Church is a member of Eco Church and has achieved a Bronze award. The Eco Church scheme encourages churches to engage their communities with politicians - local and national - on environmental issues. The environment will be a starting point, however, as it is just one of many hot topics of the election campaign. Other discussion points range from tax and the economy to immigration, housng, education and the NHS (health), plus many more.
Do you have burning questions about how candidates would handle local matters? Or concerns about national policy?
Come armed with topics and put forward your thoughts on the night.
Questions should be kept short and to the point.
* Please note the evening will be held in the church and not the adjacent centre, which will be in use by local groups. We ask that attendees bear in mind the needs of centre users.
This is a non-ticketed event. We invite you to RSVP to give us an indication of numbers.
If you wish to submit a question, in no more than 40 words, please email ecochurch@stjohnsredhill.org.uk
You are advised to arrive in good time. Parking and seating is not reserved.
