As a director of Houghton le Spring Residents Community Interest Company my interests lie solely in the local Community in which I have lived and worked my whole life.

Full statement

My passion is the people of Houghton. By working together WITH the residents, I will strive to make Houghton a better/safer place to live, work and raise our families. Local politics should be about local issues. I feel Houghton needs to be represented by people who put Houghton first rather than any party they are affiliated to. My political ethos is transparency, informing and involving the public, something I feel is sadly lacking. If elected I promise to continue to work for and support Houghton’s residents, traders, and community services. The only voice YOU have in local politics is YOUR precious vote. Please use it to shout up for Houghton. VOTE INDEPENDENT and let’s put people before party.
