Amber Valley Green Party is delighted to confirm its support for the four pledges called for by Derbyshire Wildlife Trust’s Election Campaign for a Wilder Derbyshire:
- Commit to making sure everyone who lives in Derbyshire is within 15 minutes of a high-quality green space
- Invest in natural flood management along the River Derwent and River Trent
- Support farmers across the county to create more space for wildlife
- Commit to improving greener and active travel options for people right across the county.
Green Party councillors now represent the people of Amber Valley at all levels of local government. They are committed to working positively with others to get things done and to hold councils to account. Green councillors are not told how to vote, so they can always vote in the best interests of their communities. Where voters have elected Green councillors, they are very pleased with the result.
Green councillors continue to push for a better local development plan to provide affordable, energy-efficient homes, preserve the Green Belt, re-use brownfield sites, and protect wildlife and high-quality farmland. We support long-term, sustainable development that takes care of our rivers, green spaces and clean air.
