The bank holidays which are approaching around Easter and the Royal Wedding may provide many opportunities for a public appearance in your ward.

Have a look through the events in the run-up to the election and see if you can make an impact on any of them.  April 23 is St George’s Day, April 24 is Easter Sunday and April 29 is the Royal Wedding.  The Royal Wedding falls on a Friday so anything that happens on that day will be reported in the following week’s paper. If there’s a street party or community event happening in your ward, get involved and talk to (though don’t annoy) the attendees – and make sure you keep your eyes open for the press photographers.
