About me

I have had the great pleasure to have lived in Broadwater for over 50 years !

I have three sons who have all gone to the local primary and secondary schools in the area (I am a Parent Governor of St. Marks Primary School). I’m a former professional boxer, WIBF British Lightweight Champion. In 2012, I was honoured to be a carrier of the Olympic torch. During the first Gulf War I served as a combat medical technician for the Territorial Army. I am currently a member of the Independent Police Advisory Group (IPAG) and I am an Independent Critical Incident Advisor (both roles with the Kent police). For my day job, I run a couple of private businesses.

I am determined to do all I can to ensure the borough, the town and in particular Broadwater ward remain places to be proud of. Living in the ward means I not only understand local issues, I live them every day - just like you.

Current Tunbridge Wells Council Balance of Power

Lib Dems have 12 councillors so, together with other non-Conservative parties, for the first time in a generation we have the opportunity to change the leadership of the council - replacing the tired Tories with fresh faces with new ideas and energy.

We will work together with all parties to achieve the best outcomes for residents across Tunbridge Wells.

Tunbridge Wells Lib Dem Key Objectives

(https://www.twlibdems.org.uk/may_elections_twld)

As a party with the very real potential to lead a coalition Borough Council, we are focused on six key objectives:


  1. Safer streets (Click these headings to bring you to the detailed plans)
    Tunbridge Wells will have safer, more attractive streets where people can choose to walk or cycle, and vulnerable road users are protected

  2. Vibrant town centres and protecting the council’s finances
    Create vibrant, attractive and well planned towns and villages while balancing the books

  3. Sustainability and the environment
    Reduce the Council's carbon footprint and support residents in reducing their own carbon impact

  4. Become an open and transparent council that truly listens
    Ensure our consultation processes are constructive and allow for meaningful input from residents

  5. Provide genuinely affordable housing
    Work with partners to create a portfolio of sustainable, affordable housing for social rent

  6. Enhance local democracy
    Devolve more powers to the borough’s parish councils, where they are wanted and when legally possible

My focus for Broadwater

  • Community safety, including safer roads

  • A Broadwater medical centre

  • More activities for young and old in Broadwater

  • Support & encourage a farmers’ market in the town

  • Support & encourage local artists with help for local celebrations of music, writing, arts and crafts

If elected, I will always listen if you have a problem. And “give it my best” to assist you.


I hope you will vote for me on the 5th May.
