WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE
Stockton & Hartlepool Green Party are a local group within the Green Party of England and Wales, covering the constituencies of Stockton North, Stockton West, and Hartlepool. Our members and supporters are working together to campaign for a Green future; meaning one which is healthier, environmentally sustainable, and fair. You’ll likely see our team out conducting surveying work in our local area, and we hope to keep residents updated through delivering regular newsletters. We are proud to work hard all-year-round (and not just at election time).
People understandably often tell us that they have lost faith in current politics. Greens propose solutions which are fair to people, are based on the best available evidence, and will be kind to the planet where we live. Unlike other parties, The Green Party has truly progressive national policies proposed and voted on by our members. We are not made up of ‘career politicians’, but instead people who are experts in their own fields (such as scientists, teachers, young carers and students). Therefore our policies are meaningful, and really have community interests at heart. You can read more about them here.
