South Lincolnshire Green Party today announced that Ian Simmons will be standing in the forthcoming by-election Grantham St Wulframs, on November the 10th.
Ian said, “I’m excited to be standing as candidate in this by-election. The Green Party is now the third party in terms of voter intention. Voting Green therefore can make a difference and we can, and do, win seats.”
Ian enjoys supporting the community, working as a volunteer in biodiversity group for the Wyndham Park Forum. Ian can often be found with a litter picker in hand, keeping his local streets clean. He helped establish and now helps with running Grantham Men’s Shed and he co-leads Grantham RiverCare, which recently won a prestigious award BBC Radio Lincolnshire’s Make-A-Difference Award. He is a member of Grantham Lions.
Other of his priorities include traffic congestion and parking in Grantham, which he thinks are important in encouraging and supporting local businesses to bring a vibrant feeling back to the town.
Ian has lived in South Lincolnshire for over thirty years and as a resident of the ward.
