Green Party names candidate for Stroud District Council Severn ward by-election on WEdnesday June 11th

The Green Party candidate for the Stroud District Council by-election in Severn ward on June 11 is Moya Shannon. Moya previously stood in the ward during last year’s SDC elections and gained more than half of the number of votes gained by either of the winning candidates. She believes that at her second attempt, with the Greens riding high after the recent County Council elections, she stands a very good chance of winning. More from Moya here.

Poor air quality is detrimental to the health of our planet – not just for humans, but for all living things. Air pollution is a major public health risk, ranking alongside cancer, heart disease and obesity. It shortens lives and damages quality of life for many people and adults and children with lung or heart problems are at greater risk of symptoms.
Thankfully, there are people who care about and monitor the air pollution in towns, cities and countryside – people prepared to stand up to big industry and government and call out bad practice, often with consequences for their actions.
Come and join us for an evening of discussion and debate with guest speakers. Everyone is welcome and the event is free. Can’t join us on the night? Register anyway and you will be sent the recording.
