Simeon Hart has been selected as a Parliamentary Candidate for the Green Party in the constituency of Oldham West and Royton for the forthcoming by-election on Thursday 3rd December.

He needs your support to raise money for sign language interpreters’ fees during his 3 week campaign. He says:

"We need to raise £3,000 to enable me to run a full campaign without communication barriers, because the Access to Elected Office Fund for Disabled People (AEOFDP) has been frozen and is being evaluated. We don’t know when AEOFDP will be opened again to support Deaf and Disabled people."
