working hard for Cheltenham

Cheltenham has a full local council election in May 2024

The Green Party will be running a full slate of 40 candidates at these elections, covering every ward in Cheltenham. This will be the most ambitious campaign the Greens have ever run, offering voters a positive Green alternative to more of the same.

People are fed up of being told that they "have to vote this way or that party will win". It is taking voters for granted and offers no real choice for anyone wanting change. It is also not true.

In the 2022 elections, Green Councillor Tabi Joy defeated both the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives in St Pauls. Green Candidate Jan Foster finished ahead of both the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives in Prestbury in 2023. Greens already hold two seats on the  council. We will be calling on the people of Cheltenham to positively vote Green for change in May 2024.

The countdown to the local elections is on:

It is time for change

The Green Party made our breakthrough onto Cheltenham Borough Council in 2022, electing our first councillors. We’re working to elect even more in 2024, and believe a Green-run council is possible here, just like Mid-Suffolk.

Cheltenham is a green town, with a tremendous community spirit, and huge potential. But we also have high inequality, polluted air, congested roads, poor cycle routes and a tired council out of ideas after 15 years of one party Lib Dem rule. We don't have to settle for the middle of the road status-quo politics of the last few decades.

We are facing crises around the cost of living, in our public services and in our climate and environment. At the Green Party we have plans to improve everything that matters for families and communities.

Greens across the country do things differently, always working to offer fair, green solutions that make life better for all.

When we say "fairer and greener", we mean it.

If you want to live in a town where Green policies are a reality, get involved and help make it happen!
