In Amelia's own words

Meet Amelia, a passionate local voice for Park Ward who truly believes that if you want to make a difference, you have to get involved.

Amelia has already made a real impact in the community. She set up Grimsby Park Wombles, bringing residents together for litter picking sessions, volunteers with Park Care to help look after People’s Park, and previously gave her time as a scout leader, supporting young people to learn new skills and grow in confidence.

With a background in ecology, Amelia has been a strong advocate for protecting our green spaces, from campaigning for bat and bird boxes in People’s Park to standing up against development that threatens our wildlife, wellbeing and homes.

In her role as an organiser for UNISON, Amelia supports public sector workers to secure fair treatment at work. She is also a committed member of the Labour women’s group, championing women’s rights and safety both locally and nationally. Having previously worked in a library, she understands just how vital these spaces are and has supported efforts to protect Grimsby Library.

Amelia is a hardworking and dedicated member of the community, ready to bring her energy and experience to make a real difference for residents in Park Ward.
