Greater Manchester Climate and Environment Mayoral Hustings

Join us on 1st April to hear from GM Mayoral candidates about their climate and environmental commitments and to put your questions to them

On 6th May Greater Manchester residents will elect the Metro Mayor for the region. The Greater Manchester Metro Mayor has a great deal of influence over how the region will respond to the climate and nature emergencies, with powers on housing, transport, adult education and skills. A green and fair recovery is in sight but needs the political vision and will to implement with the urgency required.

This online event will ask candidates to set out their vision for a green and fair recovery. To help us to represent your views and priorities, we invite you to share with us your questions for the candidates and to tell us about what matters most to you and your community.

The event is being chaired by Emma Greenwood, Youth MP for Bury and is being held on Zoom Webinar.

Have your say! Join us for this virtual husting on Thursday 1st April 5.30-7.00pm and put your questions to the candidates about committing to a green and fair recovery for Greater Manchester. Submit your questions here. Questions should be submitted before 28th March.
