On 7 May 2026, there is a Scottish Parliament election happening in Scotland.

Organisations working directly with voters, including local authorities and charities, can play an important role in supporting voters ahead of the Scottish Parliament election.

We have created a range of resources to support people to register to vote and to provide information on the election.

Voter registration resources

To support our voter registration campaign, we have created a range of partner resources to help local authorities and civil society organisations promote voter registration. 

These posters showcase representatives of groups we know are less likely to be registered including people experiencing homelessness, people with learning disabilities, Muslim women and Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities.

Voter information resources

These resources are designed to raise awareness on how to complete the ballot paper and voting in person or via post or proxy.
