Brent Green Party News and Events

A warm welcome to members and volunteers who have joined us since the last circular. There are now nearly 200 people on this list. The aim of the circular is to keep you up to date with what is happening locally and to give you a chance to get involved. Despite the surge in membership we are still up against the other parties in terms of feet on the ground so any contribution you can make, however small, is welcome and invaluable.
