Pembrokeshire Green Party members will meet on Wednesday 25 June at 7.30 pm for the first meeting in several years. This inaugural Pembrokeshire meeting will see the selection of the first General Election candidate the Greens have fielded in Pembrokeshire since 1992.
Wales Green Party leader, Pippa Bartolotti will be in attendance to help advise the group in ways to build and grow the branch locally.
Pippa Bartolotti said, “I am delighted that the Pembrokeshire Green Party has invited me along to their first meeting. Membership of the Green party in Wales has shot up by an unprecedented 46% since January. The outcome of the recent European election has really concentrated people’s minds, and they are joining the Wales Green Party.
"We know that climate change is affecting all communities – from farmers to seaside towns, and people everywhere are telling me that we must start putting the environment at the top of the agenda. Coupled with increasing rural poverty and soaring house prices, the Greens are the only political party with the knowledge and the will to transform Wales into a one planet, more equal, and thriving nation.”
The meeting is to be held at Lletty Danbarch, Wolfscastle, Pembrokeshire, SA62 5LX there is disabled access at the venue. There is limited parking so please contact Jim Scott before the meeting on 07814089250 as we will have a shuttle car available from Wolfscastle should numbers require it.
