STEWARDS are set to meet ahead of the All Under One Banner (AUOB) independence march on Saturday.
AUOB is hosting a Zoom meeting for stewards at 6pm on Wednesday (June 21) to ensure the smooth running of the march, which is taking place in Stirling on June 24. Experienced stewards will explain what the role involves and answer any questions from volunteers.
“All Under One Banner holds National demonstrations for independence on an annual basis, so there is always the need for volunteer Stewards to ensure that the marches are well organised,” organisers said.
The meeting will be held by AUOB's Chief Stewards, who will explain what's involved with this straightforward role and answer any questions. We look forward to seeing you there. #AUOBStirling

“Being a steward will not interfere with your enjoyment of the march as you can walk alongside family and friends - and with 34 marches since 2014 that have all been vibrant and peaceful, it's clear and commendable that the YES community's behaviour is consistently impeccable.
“The meeting will be held by AUOB's Chief Stewards, who will explain what's involved with this straightforward role and answer any questions. We look forward to seeing you there.”

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
