Worcester Green Party is hoping to build on successful recent elections by increasing its number of county councillors.
The party has put forward a full slate of candidates for each of the county divisions in the city for the council elections taking place on May 1.
Two candidates – Matt Jenkins in St Stephen and Andrew Cross in Warndon Villages – are standing for re-election.
Mr Jenkins has stood successfully for election three times and first took his seat in 2013.
He said: “I’m very much looking forward to more Green colleagues joining the Green and Independent Group Alliance at Worcestershire County Council.
“We have a great set of candidates who would make excellent councillors.”
The Greens have enjoyed a successful few years in city council elections and have increased their representation on Worcester City Council from four seats in 2021 to 12 in 2024.
St Clement city councillor Tor Pingree, who won her seat from former Conservative city council leader Chris Mitchell in 2023, was re-elected last year and has been campaigning in the Riverside division.
She said: “I hope that residents will put their faith in me again, some of them for the third time, and that I have proven myself as a hard-working councillor.
“I am excited about standing for election in the Riverside division, as it is an area that I have known my whole life, so it would be a real privilege to be able to represent everyone in the area.”
In Rainbow Hill and Fort Royal, the Green candidate is Clare Wratten, who lives in the division and can be seen out regularly door-knocking, litter-picking and taking part in community activities.
She said: “I was inspired to stand for election because I feel that we need responsive and active county councillors who really listen to residents.”
