Candidates’ Breakfast Briefings

Candidates’ Breakfast Briefings are a chance for candidates to ask any questions you may have about the elections and your campaign and you can also pick up an elections t-shirt if you haven’t already. The Candidates’ Breakfast Briefings will take place weekdays from 26 February - 8 March at 9:15 - 10:00am in the Study, 2nd floor, 25 Gordon Street.

Elections Budget

All candidates can spend up to £100 each.  You can claim your expenditure back as long as you have valid receipts. All campaign expenditure needs to be listed on your elections budget and where available receipts should be attached.  Where no receipts are provided, the cost must reflect market value. Checks may be made on the internet. All candidates must submit their Elections Budget to the Representation & Campaigns Office by 12noon on Friday 08/03/2013.  Failure to do this may result in election disciplinary action.
