I feel very lucky to live in such a beautiful village with a kind and compassionate community, but there are things that need fixing and I would relish helping with that.

Full statement

I have already been working hard for our villages for the past couple of years, getting potholes fixed and graffiti cleared, campaigning to end the disgusting amount of sewage being poured into our streams (you may have seen my petition to Southern Water) and supporting the fight against Conservative-approved plans to drill for fossil fuels in our beautiful countryside.

We need an active, visible and hardworking local councillor, that will fight for our villages and get things done for residents.

When half of Chiddingfold is without water, or when Combe Lane is closed unexpectedly for weeks, or when the bus doesn’t turn up day after day, it should be our local councillor that’s demanding action and keeping residents informed on what’s going on.
