Hart is a beautiful district and Hartley Wintney one of its most beautiful parts.

Full statement

I consider myself fortunate to live here.

As a keen outdoor person in my hobbies and in my work I’ve noticed our changing climate – the increasing extremes in weather, from hotter, drier, summers to much wetter winters. As your local council representative I’ll work hard to ensure that decisions made help to reduce our communities’ impacts on our environment and increase our resilience in this ever-changing world.

Improving our transportation system is essential, not just for our environment but also for our economy, giving the young and all access to employment and opportunities beyond Hartley Wintney. This can be done through improved public transport and infrastructure, such as for cycling.

We have a housing crisis here as in so many communities. I believe that everyone deserves access to safe, affordable, and stable housing. As our community develops we need to create housing for all, not just a few.

My pledges to you Putting the environment first From better public transport, to protecting our green spaces, I will put our environment first.

Considerate development We need housing for all, especially the younger generation, but the council must ensure the environment is protected and infrastructure matches development.

GP and Dentist appointments It is far too difficult to get an appointment. I will use every opportunity to meet with local surgeries and push for change.
