Standing for the ward of Chelmsley Wood is Hazel Dawkins; a passionate and dedicated young woman who champions Chelmsley Wood and campaigns locally on a variety of issues such as fly-tipping, housing developments, housing issues and much more.

Hazel is also one of the local town Councillors for Chelmsley Wood and has extensive knowledge of the local issues in the area due to being a young parent of two children, 7 and under, one of whom has some disabilities.

Hazel says “The reduced funding for Dial in Kingshurst and the Citizens Advice Bureau will affect the local residents and I am appalled at the way the council have conducted themselves. Change at the council is needed so services like this can continue. I have been a service user of both so can relate to you all.”

A vote for Hazel in May will help provide the change Chelmsley Wood needs.
