Dorset Greens Need Your Help
Green Party volunteers have produced this short film explaining why Dorset Greens need your urgent help.
The need for elected Green politicians has never been more urgent.
It's time to start work to get more Greens onto Dorset Council.
Can you help us fund a paid officer to support our election work?
A small monthly donation will support this role over the months ahead. Thank you.
