Teddy Somers
Green Party candidate for Sale Central
Green Party
I'm standing as a candidate in Sale Central because I want to represent young people and give them a seat at the table. I have deep concerns about climate change and I am proud to stand for social justice. It would be an honour to be the first Green Party councillor in Sale Central :)
