Our vision for a better Southend.
The Green Party want to make Southend a city fit for the future.
Our local Greens are already standing up for what matters, holding the council to account, and building a fairer, greener community.
With your support, we can change Southend for the better.
Something has to change.
People want a better council that prioritises our community and they want honest and transparent elected representatives.
The Green Party will achieve this.
The people of Southend are fed up with the same old story. For decades, the council has ignored big issues like traffic congestion, air pollution, rogue landlords, and rife inequality, and we’re all worse off because of it.
Southend is ready for better.
The Green Party have already delivered results for the city; working to make Southend a fairer and greener city. Our local Green team is already hard at work standing up for residents and holding the council to account.
We have a forward-thinking plan for how we can make Southend fit for the future, and our fresh and unique approach offers a new and genuine alternative for voters.
We are already gaining support from families across Southend who have told us that they’ll be voting Green in 2026; as they really appreciate the honesty and hard work of our dedicated local volunteers.
We already have two fantastic Green Councillors representing Leigh, and with your support, we will get more Greens elected to Southend Council.
Our Green Councillors.
