Community Assembly of Grimsby
Serving, supporting and protecting our local community
About us
The Community Assembly of Grimsby is located in the once home port for the world's largest fishing fleet around the mid-20th century until fishing fell sharply. The Cod Wars denied Grimsby access to Icelandic fishing grounds and the European Union used its Common Fisheries Policy to parcel out fishing quotas to other European countries in waters within 200 nautical miles (370 km) of the British Isles coast.
There is archaeological evidence of a small town of Roman workers in the area in the 2nd century AD of Roman occupation. Located on The Haven, which flowed into the Humber, the site long provided a location for ships to shelter from approaching storms. It was well placed to exploit the rich fishing grounds in the North Sea. Sometime in the 9th century AD, Grimsby was settled by the Danes and it is claimed that the name Grimsby derives from Grim, a Danish fisherman and by is derived from the Old Norse word býr for village.
Community Assemblies are made up of residents concerned about a lack of democratic process at a local and national level, dedicated to preserving and asserting our inalienable rights and obligations to ourselves, the Earth and future generations.
