I was born and raised in Stockingford.

Full statement

After leaving school, I studied at the Army Apprentices College and served with HM Forces both abroad and in the UK. After my service, I returned home to Nuneaton, where I live with my wife and son and am employed locally as an engineer. I enjoy music and watching football.

I volunteer as an unpaid director at five of our local schools and I sit on the school appeals panels for Warwickshire that ensure all our local children are treated fairly. I’m also a trustee of a local charity, that aids the most vulnerable members of our community especially the elderly.

I joined the Conservative party in 2021, inspired by the plans that the newly elected Conservative Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council had for Transforming Nuneaton, that I felt were so badly needed after decades of slow decline. In 2022, I was proud to be elected to be as a member of council for Arbury and over the next two years worked tirelessly supporting the residents, schools and our businesses.

In May, I’m standing to be elected to become a member of Warwickshire County Council for the first time. My priorities for the residents of Arbury are:

1. Work to raise the standards of Education in North Warwickshire

2. Protect the most vulnerable of our community.

3. Work with the numerous volunteer groups around Arbury and help them deliver a better place for us to live.

Best Wishes

Michael.
