My education in Buckingham and attendance at the Aylesbury Agricultural College, led to my working life being primarily involved in agriculture.

Full statement

I am proud to say the Stuchbury family roots go back hundreds of years in the Buckingham area, so it is natural that with a proven record of public service, I should seek re-election to continue to support and represent my community in Buckingham and the Villages.

I have served my community for many years as a Buckingham Town Councillor, as Mayor and as the Chair of the Town Centre & Events Committee. In the past I sat as a member of Buckinghamshire County Council, Aylesbury Vale District Council and I am a founder member of the new Buckinghamshire Council. My current duties on the Council encompass the Audit, Planning and Children& Education Committees as well as the local Community Board. As a member of the Buckinghamshire Fire Authority I am working to support our Fire fighters to ensure the service they provide continues to maintain its high standards.

On all these bodies, past and present, I have robustly challenged and questioned matters that arise to ensure the economic well-being and matters of social concern to residents are fully represented.
