Victoria Rance
Green Party candidate for Mottingham, Coldharbour & New Eltham
I am an artist, teacher, and environmental campaigner, and have lived in Greenwich since 1993. I brought up three children here, who all live locally, and we love living in Greenwich. I am passionate about the environment and protecting natural habitats. My studio is on Deptford Creek and I have seen at first hand water levels rising, and how climate change already affects both the human and the natural world in London, as well its threat to us all globally. I want a big Green Party presence on the council to help us address it and prepare.
