THIS weekend, The National is offering readers a special edition paper focusing on Scottish independence activists – and a special offer!
On Saturday, July 1, Yes activists will be out up and down the country kicking off a summer of independence campaigning.
As THE platform for the independence movement, we wanted to represent the spirit of Scotland for the campaign launch, with not just our regular voices.
So, we reached out to the steering committee of Believe in Scotland, folk who represent regions of local groups, to contribute. These articles will be available online and in Saturday’s newspaper edition.
Voices from Orkney to the Borders will discuss the issues in their region and what a campaign needs to address. Aberdeen will share how they get young people involved, Mid Scotland will discuss stall engagement, Dundee tell us the tips to help debunk arguments of No, and Dumfries and Galloway share what materials work best.
Edinburgh, Ayrshire, Highlands and Islands, Fife, and more are also all contributing to the conversation.
The supplement will also be a resource for groups to use on stalls and deliver to the undecided. It is a show of force. A show to the public of the effort by activists on the ground. It is a show of unity.
We will also be offering a year of The National’s coverage from just £24! From Friday until Monday, our special offer will run over the weekend as we showcase Scotland’s activist efforts.
Your subscription will ensure projects like these can continue to support the Yes campaign, especially in the run up to the General Election.
Our coverage of the SNP’s Independence Convention and the All Under One Banner march through Stirling, both on Saturday, June 24, was a team effort and your support played a massive role.
So, we hope you enjoy the supplement, join your local group this Saturday and consider supporting our efforts – as the summer campaign heats up…
