David Willington is the Green Party candidate for Stocksbridge & Upper Don Ward in the local elections on May 4th 2023.
I moved to Sheffield with my family in 2004 and live in Oughtibridge. It’s a city we love and in recent years I’ve been involved in local and city-wide issues including school governance and music education. I work in IT as a software developer.
I’m supporting the Don Valley Railway Group now bidding for Government funding for reopening of closed railway lines. This viable project to reopen the line from Sheffield Victoria to Stocksbridge with a commuter service every 30 minutes will make a massive difference for travel to and from Sheffield city centre.
