The Green Party has become a major force for positive change in our area, reflected in six councillors on Folkestone & Hythe District Council and the lead group on Hythe Town Council.
We rely solely on volunteers so please do consider becoming a member of the Green Party and helping us build on this success.
Our hard-working councillors campaign to save the area’s open spaces. They fight to improve biodiversity, community facilities, recycling and reuse. They seek to ensure fairness and equality for all and push for truly affordable homes for everyone, as well as endeavouring to ensure all councils are open and accountable.
