30 Under 30 Alumni
Since it started in 2012, the 30 Under 30 Scheme has contributed many great activists to the Green Party and has developed a number of great activists along the way. Including Bristol Central MP, Carla Denyer. If you wish to follow in the footsteps of Carla Denyer MP then apply here!

“30 under 30 was really useful and so much fun – do it! I applied as a local election candidate in 2015. By the time my year’s programme started I was a councillor, and by the time it ended I was part of the leadership team of my councillor group in Bristol. All the way through I was learning valuable lessons in campaigning, policymaking, and how governments work.” – Carla Denyer
