One week to go to apply to present at TICTeC - it's always a brilliant opportunity to hear about and get feedback on civic and pro-democracy uses of digital tools and to meet an inspiring community of changemakers. Tell us about your brilliant work to get a speaking slot!

If you'd like to join us at the always inspiring and educational TICTeC this year, you'll need to get a session proposal in before the 15th. mysociety.org/2024/11/20/tic… #meetinMechelen #CivicTech #callforpapers #callforproposals #TICTeC

What's mySociety working towards? Here's the quick answer: a transparent, resilient democracy. But if you'd like a little more detail, read through our strategy at mysociety.org/strategy, & discover: - our mission - our impact - and - most importantly - who benefits from it.

@dracos doing some quick work to make sure @TheyWorkForYou now shows useful information about the election, like new constituencies, and candidates courtesy of @democlub 😍
Matthew Somerville@dracos

Given the surprise announcement, pleased that we’ve already managed to get some election-based information up and running on theyworkforyou.com, with thanks to @democlub for candidate data. The last UK boundary changes were in 2010, when we ran something a bit similar!
