The initial dates and times of the digital events are:

Commenting on the announcement of the digital sessions, Graeme Downie, Scottish Labour candidate for West Fife & Coastal Villages, said:
“I live in this Ward and regularly speak to people in the street, in parks, in shops and around the community. Even so, it is important to offer as many ways as possible for people to get to know me and for me to know what issues are most important to them.”
“I want people here to demand better and demand fairer for this area and I want to demand that with them. I want to find ways to give young people real opportunities and real choices. I want to improve services in this area and support the fantastic local communities that we have in all 13 villages in the Ward.”
“I hope people will take up the opportunity to take part and I look forward to speaking to as many people as possible both online and elsewhere throughout this campaign.”
More information on how to join is available on the campaign Facebook Page.
