Scottish Greens are campaigning to elect our first representatives to South Lanarkshire Council.

We are also working to increase our share of the vote with a view to bringing a much-needed green voice to the area.

Since joining government last Autumn the Scottish Greens have shown how Greens with decision making powers can make a real difference to lives, communities and the environment. I am so thrilled to be campaigning alongside these amazing candidates, every one of them is committed to working hard for their local area and for a greener, fairer South Lanarkshire. We look forward to electing South Lanarkshire’s first Green Councillor in May“
