I’m Aidan Stimson and I'm proud to be standing as your West Dulwich Labour and Co-operative candidate.

Full statement

Originally from Australia, I've called Lambeth home for over a decade. I know West Dulwich well - as a local resident and former caseworker for Helen Hayes MP.

From my work and life experiences, I believe that I would make a great local councillor for the residents in West Dulwich. I developed a unique skill set, which
includes:

• Dealing with casework and surgeries in Lambeth
• Assisting with community meetings
• Listening to various concerns and advocating on behalf of residents
• Detailed knowledge of West Dulwich, both from living locally and working closely with previous councillors and my running partner Judith Cavanagh.

I now work for Ed Miliband MP as his Parliamentary Assistant, helping to deliver for his constituents in Doncaster North.

I have a young family, and I care deeply for our environment, our community and neighbourhood, and I will do my best to deliver for our ward.

If elected, I will build on the excellent work of Fred Cowell, and work closely with Judith Cavanagh to be a visible, accessible councillor who listens and champions West Dulwich every step of the way.
