We offer the opportunity to book in 1:1 appointments to have a blether (chat) with the Elect Her Team. These conversations are designed for 2026 Holyrood, Senedd and local election candidates, giving you the personal space and time you need to ask us anything about running your election campaign so we can signpost you directly to support, resources and opportunities that we and our partners have in place.
We are here to help you with campaign advice, support with overwhelm and prioritisation, practising public speaking or thinking through election day and the days that follow. Whether you have questions about hustings prep, financial reporting, best practice for campaigns or something more specific not suitable for our Candidate Clinics, these 1:1 appointments are the perfect place to get personalised guidance. If we can help we will, and if not we can refer you to others who can. As you undertake the hard work of delivering an election campaign, let our team support you where we can.

We are available for 30 minute slots on Thursday 5th March. Book in some time with us!
If you find all the slots are fully booked, don’t worry - we’ll be running several sessions ahead of the May elections. We also have our monthly Candidate Clinics where you can also bring your campaign questions.
Please note these appointments are only available to 2026 Holyrood, Senedd and Local Election candidates. We also offer monthly Ask Her sessions open to anyone in our community.
Please only book an appointment if you know you are able to attend. If you book an appointment but something else comes up, just email us to let us know so we can offer it to another woman in our community.
Elect Her is committed to hosting inclusive, accessible support that enable all women to engage fully in our conversations. We will make reasonable adjustments throughout the sessions, so there is universal access. Throughout our programme of support, we anticipate what is needed in advance and respond to needs as they emerge. If you require any further accommodations to access your Ask Her appointment, please email ask-her@elect-her.org.uk. Requests must be made at least 2 working days before the scheduled event in order to enable us time to make arrangements.
