Stevie West (he/him)
Pronouns
Why would you like to be elected to the role(s) you are standing for?
I’m standing to be the External Communications Officer. Having played a part at both Branch and Sub-branch levels in the last few Holyrood and Council elections, I’m keen to help us keep up the momentum and replicate our 2026 success. We have a fantastic and growing campaign team – I'm very excited at our prospects for 2027 Council election and can't wait to get cracking.
My other choices for a Committee role are: Ordinary Member for either External Comms, Sub-branches & Member Support, or Elections & Campaigns.
What skills, knowledge and life experience would you bring to the role(s) you are standing for?
I'm one of the team of comms volunteers running our Edinburgh Greens website and calendar. I’ve written and designed numerous leaflets for the Branch and for our election campaigns over the years, and handled the printing.
I’ve been Membership Secretary and a campaign organiser of my Sub-branch (SEEG) for years, so I’m familiar with our Forest membership/email system, our canvassing systems, and organising leaflet delivery runs.
My day job is at a workers co-operative in the design and print industry, and I’ve previously worked in website design and development. I have a good understanding of accessible design, and I can write press releases. As I work part-time, I have plenty of free time to for a Committee role and Green volunteering.
