We'll transform South Wales East

At the Senedd Elections in May, we have the chance to send a clear message that people want change.

Green Party votes send a message to say we want a change in political priorities to tackle widening social inequality and for urgent action on climate change – something we have less than 10 years to deal with. In the Senedd elections, your list vote is proportional - meaning every Green vote will count.

You can help change the course of Welsh politics and with more than just your vote. 

Your donation will make a difference

While other political parties are funded by wealthy corporate donors, the Green Party is different. We’re a grassroots people-powered party, funded by thousands of people chipping in to fund our work. We need to raise £20,000 to make this the most vibrant campaign Wales Green Party has ever seen.

Because we care

Now more than ever we need to make the right decisions about the kind of world we all want to live in. We want to know what’s important to the people of Gwent – and there are well over half a million of us.
This survey will help us to understand what’s at the top of your agenda right now. We have asked you about your thoughts on 8 topics that we think might be important to you.

We'd like to understand how important YOU believe they are to you. This will help us prioritise our campaigning to make the differences people most want to see.

Let's transform South Wales East together

As a parent, I am passionate about making Wales a better place to live, work and study. That means the government taking clear and effective action to restore our natural environment, turn back the tide of climate change and rebuild local communities after the effects of years of government neglect. In the Senedd, I can deliver the improvements that you want. I have a science degree and a master’s degree in business. Following a few years working in the private sector, I have spent much of the past three decades working with charities, helping them to be more effective.
