Help get Greens elected in Reading

Reading Green Party members are hard at work all year round - delivering leaflets, sweating over press releases and navigating crumbling basement staircases as they canvass for support in the forthcoming elections. And this is work that should produce results, but hard labour, great representatives, and policies to tackle climate change, social injustice and the drive to war are not enough - the Green Party campaign also needs cash to deliver its message effectively.

It costs £20 to print 100 glowing green window posters, £200 to print a ward newsletter, £1,000 to rent a shop for the election period.

We in the Green Party don't have dodgy billionaire donors, we don't take dirty money from grubby big businesses, we're not in the pockets of media barons, but that means that we do have to ask our supporters and party members to dig deep, to contribute as much as you can.

Rob White gave the Greens their first councillor in Reading by winning the 2010 local elections for Park Ward in Reading East.

We now need to build on our recent success and elect more councillors to Reading Council.

YOUR CASH could be the contribution that takes us over the line. You can do that easily and simply by sending a cheque to the address above. In order to comply with election law, you need to be on the electoral register and to give us your name and address.

THANK YOU!
