We will choose a representative selection which our Chair will ask every candidate. If any candidates can&#8217;t attend, we will ask them to send someone to represent their views &#8211; not simply their Party manifesto&#8217;s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will also be celebrating <strong>ACT<\/strong>&#8216;s first 5 months, in which we have been supporting the District of Teignbridge on its journey to becoming carbon neutral. After Question Time there will be mulled wine, mulled apple juice and mince pies &#8211; a good time to socialise and share views on the best ways to reach our ambitious goal! We now have around 200 members from all over the District, of which 50 are very active &#8211; but there is always room for more. We&#8217;d would love to see you there and hear your views!
