Section 3: Community Involvement

I sit on the Licensing and Environment Committee which I enjoy and find very interesting. I am also a trustee of Areley Kings Church House as a Stourport town councillor. I drive voluntary for Community Transport in Wyre Forest, transporting passengers who are elderly, disabled or not on a bus route etc. I support many charities within the district including Emily Jordan Foundation a charity for adults with learning disabilities. My Wyre Forest Community Leadership Funding this year was distributed equally between Community Transport and Stourport Town Council to help make the annual Christmas Lights switch on an even more exciting night for our residents.


Section 4: Assisting Constituents

I am always around my ward, and available to contact by phone, email or even a knock on my door at home. I'm in the town most days if anyone wants to stop me for a chat or advice. Issues I've managed to solve this last year have included several problems regarding social housing. I am in constant contact with Community Housing, so this is not a problem for me.


Section 5: Supplementary Information

I have been fortunate to have represented my hometown of Stourport on Severn as Mayor on 4 occasions meeting dignitaries from other towns and cities around the midlands raising over £17000 for local and national charities. I have lived in Stourport all of my life, which I am extremely proud of, and made many, many friends, and seen a lot of changes along the way.
