Calling all Leith SNP members...

You are warmly invited to attend Leith SNP's AGM tomorrow evening, 17 September, at 7pm in Leith Community Centre, Kirkgate, Leith. Our meeting will be chaired by Deidre Brock.

We look forward to welcoming new and old members as we step up our campaigning for independence, and to return an SNP Scottish Government that prioritises reducing inequalities and ensuring the best possible standard of living for all the people who live here. Our candidate Ben Macpherson MSP for Edinburgh Northern and Leith has earned our support after nearly 10 years of tireless work for the people of Leith and as a Scottish Government minister responsible for delivering the highly praised Scottish Child Payment, which has proved effective in tackling the unacceptable poverty in a wealthy nation. Come and hear how you can get involved in our campaign.

A universal benefit that Scotland can be proud of.

🎉 The Baby Box is 8⃣! I'm delighted that 350,000 Baby Boxes have now been delivered across Scotland - including 25,140 in Tayside - since 2017.

🍼 Thousands of families across Dundee are benefiting from a box containing essential items for newborns, such as books, clothing and thermometers.

👶 The Baby Box - which saves families around £420 - is a crucial part of the Scottish National Party (SNP) Scottish Government’s commitment to eradicating child poverty.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 But it is only with the full powers of independence that we can build a better future for every child born in Scotland.
