Catharine Birchwood Green Party. Votes 261
I have lived in Eastbourne for twenty-four years, raised my family here and have grown to love this town and its beautiful surrounding countryside. All my life I have been passionate about the environment and now believe that we need to take urgent action regarding the way we live.
I am fully committed to the Green Party as the only party that is seriously prepared to make the changes necessary. Let us join the ever-increasing forum of the global Green movements when it comes to voting for a viable future! Some local issues I am particularly interested in are the threat of flooding in parts of the town, the need to expand the recycling plant so it can cope with a greater volume and the green boxes taking more plastics and other materials.
I believe that our senior citizens can continue to make a valuable contribution to our community. At the same time their life-long contributions should be reflected in their pensions.
