Meet the 2024 – 2026 Youth Councillors

Millie Thompson

3 reasons for standing

1. I attend many activities within Epping and feel widely involved in the local area. Therefore, I would like to bring about change in the local community
2. I am a very creative person, meaning I can bring innovative and ‘outside the box’ perspectives to the table
3. I am a strong communicator, both in conveying my opinions, and when listening to others. This will allow me to actively express my own ideas as well as my peers

Personal campaign statement

I want to make a positive impact on our local area and create a better tomorrow. I believe we should make Epping a space where everyone is treated with respect and acceptance, regardless of background, race, sexuality, or identity. We should encourage education and empower young minds. As a community, let’s work to ensure that every person has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
