Tony Tibbenham
Green Party candidate for Denton West
I’ve supported the Green Party for decades though only recently become active within Tameside helping my friends, family and neighbours resist divisive alternatives. Work brought me to Denton, with my family, 5 years ago. I love the area so decided to retire here: To a friendly town with good transport links and enough countryside we can still breathe. I want to improve our NHS, protect our open spaces and improve public transport options. Denton is our home and I am keen to protect and promote all it’s wonderful diversity.
