📢JOIN US FOR SCOTLAND DEMANDS BETTER
Justice & Peace Scotland is proud to join the Scotland Demands Better campaign in collaboration with over 100 partners in The Poverty Alliance.
🪧On Saturday 25th October we will be joining the Scotland Demands Better March in Edinburgh under the Justice & Peace Scotland banner and we are asking all our supporters to come together to demand a Scotland where all can live with dignity.
Over 1 million people in Scotland are living in poverty, including more than one in five children. This is not the vision of society we strive for in seeking to realise dignity and the common good for all as envisioned in Catholic Social Teaching.
The SDB campaign is asking for:
🔹Better jobs for everyone who needs one with fair conditions and wages that pay the bills.
🔹Better investment for life's essentials: like affordable homes, good public transport, a thriving natural environment and strong public services.
🔹Better social security so that all of us have a foundation for the future.
🗓️SAVE THE DATE NOW to join us this October in calling for a Scotland where everyone can thrive!
🕤The march will leave from the Scottish Parliament around 9.30-10am and proceed up the Royal Mile and along George IV Bridge to The Meadows.
🎤There we'll have a family-friendly rally with a festival feel, including music, speeches, and entertainment.
📍Nearer the time we will share our exact assembly point and meeting time so please keep an eye on our social media or join our mailing list.
Let's come together to show that Scotland Demands Better for all!
