PLEASE RSVP TO THE EVENT ON ACTION NETWORK

Southwark has massively expanded its electoral ambitions for May and we want to bring in a green wave of councillors! To do this, we need you to step up and help us organise! Will you get trained up to help us win big in May?

Join us for a regional training day designed to help local parties and activists learn how to win elections from the grassroots up.

We’ll cover the nitty gritty of winning seats, alongside trainings on fundraising, capacity building, and grassroots organising.

This is highly recommended for campaign leads and local organisers. Please forward this to members looking to get more involved, and your ward teams!

Our goal is to train up hundreds of grassroots campaign managers to build capacity faster than we ever have before.

PLANNING FOR PEOPLE: HOW CAN WE MAKE THE PLANNING SYSTEM WORK IN SOUTHWARK?

Southwark lies at the centre of one of the world’s richest cities with high land values and great potential for development. How can Green councillors influence how land is used in the borough for the benefit of Southwark residents, many of whom suffer from poor and insecure housing and high levels of poverty and unemployment?

Our speaker is Cllr Kath Whittam, one of our new councillors who has recently defected from Labour. Drawing on her 8 years’ experience on Southwark’s planning committee, Kath will take us through the planning process. She will explain how councillors can shape and improve plans submitted by developers and the obstacles that will need to be overcome in order to maximise the benefits for Southwark residents. How can we really ensure that new developments contain at least 50% of affordable housing? How can we ensure that we retain and increase jobs and facilities for local people and protect the borough from gentrification?

Winning Goose Green for the Green Party

The campaign to win our local ward for the Green Party is starting now!

We will soon start leafleting, running street stalls and door-knocking to get our Green candidates elected in Goose Green Ward in the Council elections on 7 May this year.

All local Green Party members are invited to the campaign launch which will take the form of an informal drink at the Lordship Pub 211 Lordship Lane, SE22 8HA on Tuesday 20 January.

You can drop in at any time between 7pm and 9pm.

This is a chance to meet other Green Party members in the area and begin to plan how the campaign will run and the part you might be able to play (if you can!).

One particular request! We have yet to select our candidates for Goose Green. If you are interested in standing (applications from people of colour are particularly welcome) please come to this event for an informal chat or email: [email protected]
