Membership of Worcester Green Party is surging. Many of our members cherish being connected with others who share their values. We now have over 400 members in the city. Maybe you’ve been voting Green for some time but you’ve never been a member of a political party before and maybe you are wondering why join the Green Party?
Joining the Green Party gives you the ability to directly shape party policies, vote in internal elections, and stand for public office. It also connects you with others in Worcester who share your concerns about the environment, fairness, and the future of our community. These opportunities provide a greater level of influence over how the country is run compared to just being able to vote in elections.
Key benefits of for you joining the party include:
- Policy Influence: Members can participate in policy debates, propose new ideas, and vote on party policy, thereby helping to shape the future direction of the party and the country.
- Voting Rights: Members have the right to vote in key internal elections, such as for the party leader and selecting our local MP candidate at the next general election.
- Opportunities for Office: Membership is a prerequisite for individuals who wish to stand as a candidate in local or parliamentary elections.
- Networking and Community: Joining allows you to meet people with our shared values and build personal, social, and community networks with like-minded individuals and politicians.
- Events and Training: Members have access to exclusive events, such as annual party conferences, and receive members-only information and training resources.
- Active Campaigning: Optionally, you can get involved in local and national campaigns to get more Green councillors and MP’s elected.
Why are we encouraging more people to join the Green Party?
- Simply put we don’t have rich big businesses backing us. Most of the money we use for our election campaigns comes from you, our members.
