About Ellie

I was elected as your Green Party MP for North Herefordshire in July 2024. I’m here to listen to you and represent you as a strong champion for North Herefordshire in Westminster.

My top priorities are strengthening our local economy, improving public services, and protecting nature.

In a typical week in the role so far I spend 4 days in Westminster and 2 days working in the constituency. In the House of Commons I might be speaking in a debate about a bill, taking part in a briefing, meeting with the other Green Party MPs or reviewing policy.  Back home in Herefordshire, I visit schools, businesses, aid groups, charities, events and hold meetings with organisations. I support my team of caseworkers and we review what constituents are raising as important issues for them.  I run a surgery at least twice per month, meeting constituents face to face.

I’ve lived in Herefordshire for 20 years, previously serving as a local councillor and an MEP: it’s an honour to have been elected MP for North Herefordshire.
