My name is Guy Foreman.

Full statement

I moved to Helston in 1983 as a 17-year-old Naval recruit, serving at RNAS Culdrose for 22 years. I got married here and have two fantastic children who went to local schools including Nansloe and Boskenwyn. When retiring from the Navy I retrained as an electrician and to this day remain a self-employed electrician and County Councillor.
Four years ago, I had the honour of being elected by the residents of this ward to represent them at County Hall. I have worked hard to ensure that the voices I represent are heard. I have been responsible for helping to secure funding for the repurposing of Gateway/Budgens supermarket into a much-needed medical centre and youth facility, Mawgan Village Hall’s extension, plus helping the St Martin Community purchase their local pub.
I’m standing again to be your Cornwall Councillor, because despite this, there is still much to do.

Improving Highway Safety on our Local roads.

Too many accidents are happening on our roads. There needs to be better design and maintenance including road markings and resurfacing not just quick fixes.

Local and Fairer Funding for our Community.

Our Town and Villages are continually growing and without local funding our ability to improve our much-needed infrastructure is restricted, I want to pursue this.

Tackling Crime in the Community.

Crime in Helston, however minor isn’t going anywhere unless we deal with it, from shoplifting to antisocial behaviour to drugs related crimes, we need a way to address them effectively.
