Josh was born and went to school in Bromley.

Full statement

He returned to Bromley 15 years ago and has lived in Clock House since then.

Having stood for election as a Clock House councillor in 2014 and narrowly missing election, he continued to work with Councillors Ian Dunn and Vanessa Allen to campaign on behalf of local residents. This led to him being elected in May 2018 alongside Ian and Vanessa.

Josh sits on the council’s Industrial Relations sub-committees, the Development Control Committee and the General Purposes and Licensing Committee.

Like Vanessa, Josh was actively involved in the campaign against the demolition of Beckenham Library and used his position as the only Labour councillor on the Renewal, Recreation and Housing Committee to vote against these proposals and spoke against them at the Council Executive.

More recently, Josh has worked with local businesses to support them in securing council funding for the parade of shops on Elmers End Road.
