Getting our message across, social care crisis, protecting the NHS all in Reading Green News

You may have heard that UKIP have been invited to the general election leaders debate but the Green Party have not. Frustrating!

We cannot rely on national TV and newspapers to give us fair coverage, but we can rely on ourselves to fund, print and deliver newsletters to get our message out there. Can you chip in?

In East Reading where we have three councillors we put out quarterly newsletters and we are looking at expanding this work into neighbouring Redlands Ward and beyond. We are also hoping to get more General Election leaflets out across the wider Reading area.

Our newsletters cost about £30 per thousand. If you could donate £5, £10 or more towards our printing costs that would help us get our message of a fairer, healthier and more affordable society out to more people.
