Hamilton West Candidate

Introducing Graeme Mead

I’m Graeme Mead, a long-time Dinsdale resident, Justice of the Peace, trade industry mentor, and experienced business leader standing for Hamilton City Council, West Ward.

With decades of hands-on experience in management, community service, and trade mentoring. I understand the value of listening, acting with integrity, and getting results. I’ve supported apprentices into careers, helped families through life’s milestones, and proudly advocated for the people of West Hamilton.

I’m standing for council because I believe in practical, people-focused leadership and a smarter, more responsible approach to spending. Hamilton’s spiralling debt threatens the services and affordability we all depend on. It’s time for clear, accountable decisions that put ratepayers first.

I’ll work hard to deliver real change, focused on core services, safer communities, and a fairer future. I’ll represent our community with energy, honesty, and a strong commitment to delivering a Better Hamilton for everyone.

It’s time for change.
