www.buildingdemocracy.co.uk - new competition from the Ministry of Justice

The Ministry of Justice have launched a new competition today to find projects that will help reconnect people with the democratic process. In their words:

"We want more people to participate in our democracy, and we want you to come up with ways to make this happen."

We have been working closely with the Ministry of Justice over the past few weeks to share our experience of running something like this online. We are delighted that they have chosen to go down this route and launch our sister site: www.buildingdemocracy.co.uk

They have 10 ~£15,000 grants to give away to the projects that will reignite people's passion for democracy or the democratic process. What are you waiting for dive in!

Watch this space for further announcements later on today ....
