	<description>Manchester Green Party needs your help so we can make Manchester more Green than ever! Our goal is to build on our existing target and defence wards by electing key councillors in the Gorton and Denton constituency, flipping many other wards, and spreading our message of hope. With your help, this May we will win the biggest number of councillors to the Manchester City Council, beating both Labour and Reform. Why 2026 is the most important year ever! Wow! What a start to the year we have had, electing our first Green MP in the North! This has changed the political landscape forever and it was down to every one of you who donated your skills, time, and money to the campaign. We now have the amazing Hannah Spencer in parliament because of you! With this historic success, we have a massive responsibility: aim much higher than originally planned so on 7th May we win more councillors in Manchester than any other party. With these additional councillors on Manchester City Council our voice will be bigger and louder. In addition to our existing target and defence wards, we now need to win vital councillors in Burnage, Levenshulme, Longsight, and Gorton and Abbey Hey to support the work of our new MP, Hannah Spencer. We also want to share our message of hope throughout Manchester to flip tight wards and increase our vote share in others. Why your help is so important We know that we are up against millionaire donors and big business that prop up the other parties. We need the support of regular people like you who want to see a better and fairer world. Any money you can donate will go so much further because it will be used by a grassroots campaign with boots on the ground and people willing to dedicate their time to get Greens elected. The Green Party has seen a massive boost in membership over the last 6 months, and this is our first test at a local level to make sure this surge is seen widespread at the ballot box. We can beat both Reform and Labour on the 7th of May and win the biggest number of councillors. Help show our voices can&#x27;t be ignored and make sure that on Friday May 8th, we&#x27;re waking up to a greener and more hopeful future. P.S. Any donations will be used to support the Green Party&#x27;s current and future election campaigns in Manchester. Because we&#x27;re a political party, we&#x27;re required to run electoral register checks from people making donations above £500. If you donate over £1,500 during a year, we are required to let the Electoral Commission know, who will make this available on their website. All donations go to an existing pot of general campaigning funds. Promoted by Toby Berry on behalf of the Green Party, at Apt 62, Islington Wharf, 151 Great Ancoats Street, M4 6DH.</description>
