European Parliament Elections – Pledge Signatories

May 24, 2019

This time I’m voting

The European elections take place on May 24th, on the same day as local elections and the referendum on divorce.

This year there are 59 candidates running in three constituencies. Age & Opportunity, in partnership with the Age Friendly Cities and Counties Programme organised pre-election meetings in each constituency so that we could question candidates on their views and commitments regarding older people.

The following candidates signed up to the Alliance of Age Sector NGO’s European Election Pledges.
