Statement to voters

I was born in Taunton, and returned to the area in 2014 after a career in TV News to live with Sally and our lovely Democratic Dogs. Formerly Deputy Leader of Somerset West and Taunton Council, a leading light in the local Male Voice Choir and involved with local charity fundraisers for Musgrove Park Hospital, I am familiar with the place where I live and make it a priority to understand the issues and concerns of people living there.

This statement was last updated on June 1, 2024.

This statement was added by Benet Allen, their team, or by a Democracy Club volunteer, based on information published by the candidate elsewhere.
