I am Nailsea born and raised and as part of a family which has lived in the town for several generations I have a deep connection and passion for the town and those who live within it.

Full statement

My passion is serving my community. I have achieved this through my work as both an educator and as a volunteer, where I have set up and run several community sport groups, been an active member in local organisations, welcomed Ukrainian refugees at the airport and organised food boxes during the pandemic.

My aim is to ensure the town does not simply become a commuter town, but a community which provides people the opportunities and experiences which I was fortunate enough to benefit from myself. A thriving high street, housing which meets the needs of the local people and preserving the natural green spaces for residents to enjoy will be my main priorities on the council.
