GOLDSMITHS GREENS

The student group of the Green Party at Goldsmiths. Part of the national network: Young Greens.

Our aims:

1) To raise awareness of green issues among Goldsmiths students and Lewisham residents.
2) To campaign with the Lewisham Green Party to get more Greens elected in Lewisham and in London.

Rayyan

Rayyan Mirza, GoldsmithsYoung Greens Co-Chair and Politics student.

"I joined the Green Party after doing an internship with them and seeing at first-hand that they were the only political party in Britain with an ethical and practical approach to not just the environment but to all major political issues."

Hannah

Hannah Bullivant, President of Goldsmiths Students Union:

"I have always supported the Green Party but joined them after what I saw them do locally in Lewisham to defend local shops and services. They campaigned against the opening of a new betting shop in my area and to prevent the closure of a local swimming pool. The Green Party offers real and practical solutions not just to climate change but to other issues like housing and education."

Farrah

Farrah Zaman, English literature student at Goldsmiths:

" All the main parties talk green these days, but it is only the Green Party that has sustainability at the heart of its policies and puts people and planet before the interests of big business."

We organise a variety of events, both on campus and campaigning with the local Green Party. For more information about Goldsmiths Young Greens and ways you can get involved, e-mail: goldsmiths@younggreens.org.uk, or join our Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=4921229515
