Hi, I’m Ellen. I'm a Kensington local, mum of three, and your voice for Melbourne in the Victorian State Parliament.
Save cohealth in Kensington, Collingwood and Fitzroy
Sign the petition to call on the Victorian Labor Government to fund cohealth so that it can keep providing accessible healthcare to our local community.
Stop private guards harassing homeless people in the CBD. Invest in housing and support services.
We need homes and support services, not harassment.
Demand Labor approve safe bike lanes on Macaulay Road
Another young cyclist has been tragically killed on Macaulay Road in Kensington. We need safer bike lanes NOW.
Stop dangerous traffic in North & West Melbourne & build the Hawke St Linear Park
Sign the petition to the State Government to tell them you don’t want more rat-runs and traffic on our local streets.
Save the North Melbourne housing office
Add your name to support residents calling on Homes Victoria to keep the North Melbourne Housing Office local.
Take down the Flemington Racecourse flood wall
People’s homes and lives should be more important than protecting the horse racing and gambling industries.
Save Live Music
Music venues in Victoria are under enormous pressure. Sign the petition to save live music.
Save Public Housing
The Victorian Labor Government plans to demolish all 44 public housing towers in Melbourne and sell off the land to developers for mostly private housing. Help stop the sell-off of public housing.
Keep Melbourne liveable
We deserve a city that’s planned and built for people, not big property developers.
Upgrade South Kensington Station
South Kensington Station is dangerously narrow, inaccessible and shelters are completely inadequate.
More funding for public health and maternity care
Everyone should be able to access quality health care, regardless of how much they earn.
Arts everywhere for everyone
The arts bring us joy, and inspire deep thinking and connection with each other.
Get dirty money and dodgy deals out of politics
Our democracy shouldn’t be placed in the hands of gambling giants, fossil fuel companies or property developers.
Support for local schools
Everyone should have access to a good education at a great local school.
ABOUT ME
With my background in science, and now as a mum of three young children, taking action on climate change is what drives me.
Before I was elected as the state MP for Melbourne, I trained as a scientist and was the CEO of a national climate change non-profit organisation.
Now I’m fighting for action on climate change, more affordable housing, and a fairer society in the Victorian Parliament.
