I have lived and worked in and around Exeter for most of my life, including several years working in the Wonford area, and have seen so many changes happen to our beautiful City.

Full statement

I started working for the NHS over 22 years ago, in 2003, worked my way into management going on to found a non-clinical NHS governance company. I came to realise that I wanted to give something back to my community so I re-joined the NHS five years ago and now work as part of a team of front-line staff.

In my job I am privileged to be exposed to the real socioeconomic issues that the City has. I have experienced first hand the issues regarding over development, the over zealous approach to car users, the increase in taxes but without seeing improvements to our road conditions and of seeing places of social gatherings being turned into yet more housing.

As your local Councillor I want to give the hard-working people of Wonford and St Loyes a voice and see if we can reform and truly make Exeter better together. Let’s make sure the Community spirit for what Wonford is famous for not only continues, but thrives!
