Poppy Watson (she/they)

I would like to be elected to the role(s) I am standing for as since joining the party and helping during the election, I want to do more! I have a desire to become part of Scotland's future, and push to make Edinburgh a Greener city! Having been part of the Edinburgh South Branch, I have had such a fun time, met some amazing folks, and would love to continue doing more and become part of a committee (I love a committee).

I would love to become a member of the committee and I will bring enthusiasm and passion to everything I do. The green wave, and seeing the first-hand power of community organising is incredible, I have time, energy and a desire to help continue this upwards trajectory into the council elections of 2027.

I believe I would be a great addition to the committee due to my background working on committees (UoE prideSoc president 2025/2026), organising large-scale events - such as a Gaylidh, creating social media content, sending emails, and working with other folks.

My skills and experience set me up to work with others! I would love to be part of the communications team. I have so many fabulous and fun ideas to bring to our socials channel, ideas for promoting new memberships, and access to premium Adobe studio! I also love to organise events, create schedules and send emails. I also bring a little dyslexic flair!
