We can make a difference
Local Elections
While many voters only turn out for general elections, it is often the results of local elections that have the most significant effect on day-to-day life.
We believe that 'political balance' is a vital component of a strong local council. Lack of balance fails to represent the views and opinions of many of the region's residents.
​
With your votes, we have started to change the balance of our local Town and District councils so that they better represent the many local people that are concerned with green issues in the region.
