We are campaigning hard across Oxford to retain our existing Councillors, and send an even bigger group into the City Council in 2024.
On Saturday 3rd we will be speaking to residents about their issues and delivering hundreds of leaflets communicating our priorities for the city. We will meeting on Broad street just 10 mins from the station
By joining us for a day of doorknocking and leafleting, you can help reach hundreds of voters with the Green message, and help get more Greens elected to Oxford City Council. If you're uncomfortable with doorknocking, we'll also be delivering leaflets across the area too.
Please note - details of where to meet will be emailed to you upon registration.
Oxford currently has six Green Party Councillors. They're already making a real difference. In the last year, Greens have:
- Pushed the city council to adopt a pioneering policy on trans rights.
- Secured a commitment from the Council to roll out a scheme of free period products.
- Been at the heart of efforts to clean up transport - pushing for low traffic neighbourhoods and better active travel infrastructure.
- Persuaded the Council to call for the government to allow councils to control private sector rents.
- Got the City Council to call for Thames Water to clean up its act on pollution, and called for water to be taken into public ownership.
But there's only so much six Greens can do. That's why it's vital more Greens are elected.
