PEOPLE are being reminded to attend a question time style event with the Yate and Thornbury parliamentary candidates in a chapel in Yate tomorrow night.


Cranleigh Court Chapel, on Cranleigh Court Road, will host the event where the five candidates; Liberal Democrat Steve Webb, Conservative Luke Hall, Ukip Russ Martin, Labour Hadleigh Roberts and Iain Hamilton for the Green Party have been invited to attend and answer questions put forward by the public.


Revd Ian Wallace said: "We are hoping for a good turnout and have seating for 100 people so hope the public come along.


"The event aims to encourage people to really engage with the election with the chance to understand the key issues raised more and get involved.


"All five candidates have been invited to attend although at this point three have confirmed and two may be unable to attend.


"It will be a chance to express political views which I think is really important.


"The event will start at 7.30pm for opening statements at 8pm, and is estimated to finish at 10pm."
