I have lived in Tewkesbury for three decades and was the first elected Green on to Tewkesbury Borough Council in 2019. In 2023 I was elected to Gloucestershire County Council as well. I care deeply about equality, social justice, and the environment and have taken part in multiple protests including Extinction Rebellion actions in London and Gloucestershire. I regularly do community litter picks and previously volunteered as a community car driver. I am a professional jazz singer, run a vegan B&B, and was co-founder of local group Tewkesbury Friends of the Earth. I stood as a parliamentary candidate in 2019 and 2024 and have raised many motions and questions at Council. Contact: councillor.cody@tewkesbury.gov.uk |
A heartfelt thank you to all the residents of Newtown and Wheatpieces who supported me in the May 2023 local elections. I’m thoroughly enjoying my role on Tewkesbury Borough Council, where I’ve been working hard to represent our community and contribute to several key areas: the Audit, Overview and Scrutiny, and Standards Committees, as well as the Climate Change and Ecology Working Group. I am a Tewkesbury Town Councillor and live in Barton Street. I am actively involved in the Tewkesbury Friends of the Earth and take part in local environmental events and initiatives. I’m committed to supporting our community, encouraging greater participation in local democracy, and helping to build a fairer, greener future for everyone.

I went to Tewkesbury School before moving to Hertfordshire to study Advertising and Marketing at University. I returned to Tewkesbury to raise my children and work in education. I now work as a Senior Pastoral Mentor supporting vulnerable students. I’m passionate about equality and giving young people a voice. I’ve worked with Girlguiding UK and on campaigns for period poverty and inclusivity. I joined the Green Party to make real change happen locally and beyond. I believe politics should be kind and fair – and that starts with listening to residents and speaking up for those not always heard. Contact: councillor.sundarajoo@tewkesbury.gov.uk |
I have lived in the Tewkesbury area for nearly 30 years. I recently retired from GCHQ, having had a wonderful 38-year career in technology and operations. I’m a passionate supporter of renewable energy, community resilience, and local food systems. I volunteer with wildlife and conservation groups and love spending time outdoors. I believe in evidence-based policy and respectful politics. As a councillor, I aim to bring integrity, common sense, and Green values to local decision-making – always putting people and planet first. Contact: councillor.dimond-brown@tewkesbury.gov.uk |
