General Election 2024: Sheffield Candidate Spotlights

Over the last few weeks, the Forge Press news team have been hard at work interviewing candidates, and offering them a chance to put their policies forward on what matters to you- topics such as university and higher education policy, climate change and social issues.

We invited each candidate from both the Sheffield Hallam and Sheffield Central constituencies for an interview- and these are the responses we received:
