Our Green Councillor, Shuguftah, will always stand by the most vulnerable in society 💚 Thankyou for all you do, Shuguftah and Tamia!

Cllr Shuguftah Quddoos @councillorq.bsky.social · 9d

Before I was a cllr I worked for several women's shelters. Now, I often handle domestic violence cases & I couldn't do it without my caseworker, Tamia. She always goes the extra mile behind the scenes. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month & I want to thank her for the hidden work she does 🤍

Housing should be about homes, not profit. Green Party members joined protesters in Old Market Square today campaigning against evictions on Mansfield Road. For too long the private sector has been left to chase high rents - we say enough is enough!

Protesters stand outside Nottingham Council House in Old Market Square, holding banners which read: WORST LANDLORD OF THE CENTURY and DOWN WITH ROGUE LANDLORDS.
