Our aim is to inform discussion about pensioners' issues during the independence debate. We are not aligned to any political party. We believe that power in the hands of the Scottish people is in the best interests of all its people. The Dumfries and Galloway Group will engage local people, share our aspirations for a better Scotland, promote and provide resources for the achievement of Scottish independence.

Zoom

The use of Zoom has facilitated effective communication, particularly during the coronavirus pandemic and is likely to feature as a communication tool for the coming months.

Zoom meetings organised by Dumfries and Galloway Pensioners for Independence:

In line with GDPR and best practice we will provide clear instructions on the conduct of meetings including the use of the mute button, chat box, video and how discussion will be handled. Our meetings are private and will not be recorded or shared with a third party. The outcome of meetings will continue to be notified to Members in the form of notes/minutes via email.

Zoom meetings organised by other groups:

From time to time we share invitations to participate in Zoom meetings organised by other groups sympathetic to our aims. These meetings will be subject to the policies of the group hosting the meeting and may be recorded, re-broadcasted and shared via a range of social media. The organisers may not set out full instructions for the conduct of the meeting hence it will be the responsibility of our Members participating in these events to ensure they take steps to protect their privacy. Members may choose to mute audio, switch off video and change name. Alternatively, Members may be content for information to be shared in a variety of formats. Any issues arising from such sharing will not be the responsibility of Dumfries and Galloway Pensioners for Independence.
