I live on Cedars Park with my wife and two children.

Full statement

I have had the pleasure of representing Stow Thorney as a Town Councillor since 2019.

I have also been involved in operational decisions taken by the Cedars Park Community Centre as a director of the CIC there and more recently become a school committee member at Stowmarket High.

As a family we have been involved in many of the Town Councils initiatives such as the community litter picks. I am not someone who will be shouting from the roof tops about everything I do and maybe this is to my detriment; however, I am always more than happy for any resident of Stowmarket to contact me with regards to any concerns they have and I will always look to resolve the issue or point them in the direction of someone who can.

I believe a councillor's primary role is to positively represent everyone who lives in the ward. They should provide a bridge between the community and the council. If elected, I am committed to listening to and representing the views of residents of Stow Thorney and ensuring that they are heard and listened to.
