About the MAaP Project

We're visiting schools, colleges, youth clubs, community and cultural buildings to engage with young people, qualifying foreign nationals and any other member of the public who wishes to know more about voting, elections, politics and democracy. If you would like us to visit your setting please get in touch.

We use The Playwork Principles and 'Youth Work in Wales: Principles and Purposes' as frameworks to engage with people. Playful prompts and practical resources are the "carrot" by which people are drawn to our project but it is the engagement thereafter and the outcomes of the project, namely prompting people to register to vote and participate in the local election, that are most important.
