Midlothian Demands Better – Banner Making

Join us for a creative and community-led banner making session ahead of the Scotland Demands Better march, rallying for better jobs, services, and social security.
This free event is a chance to come together, get creative, and chat about how these national demands connect to local issues in Midlothian.
Hosted in collaboration with the Midlothian Climate Action Network, this session is open to all – community groups, volunteers, staff, and anyone else eager to get involved.
Materials will be provided – but please bring cardboard or other reusable materials if you can, to keep things sustainable.
We want to make sure the voices of Midlothian’s communities are heard. What would ‘better’ mean for Midlothian? What do you demand?
Scotland Demands Better March
Change for the better happens when people stand together and demand it. Scotland Demands Better is the march for all of us. It is our chance to come together and demand that politicians make the changes we need for a society where every household can thrive and prosper.
The non‑partisan march and rally will be held in Edinburgh on Saturday 25 October, assembling from 10am at the Scottish Parliament, proceeding along the Royal Mile to George IV Bridge and concluding at The Meadows with a rally involving music, speeches, stalls and workshops.
