This year’s candidates
Jim Frewin, Independent
Jim has lived in the area all of his life and been an active member of the Shinfield community. This includes running numerous charity events including fetes on the Village green.
Both he and his family have represented Shinfield in both football and cricket and Jim currently does a range of volunteer roles within the community.
When dealing with WBC and our current Councillors over the Eastern Relief Road he became acutely aware of how residents were being treated and that care for our community was being put below party politics.
He strongly believes this is not right and that those who stand for council should be there to serve the community they represent over and above politics and political careers. He is standing as an independent candidate to get WBC back to caring and serving Shinfield.
Chris Johnson, Liberal Democrats
Chris lives in Three Mile Cross. Having spent 25 years in the RAF, he is now a telecoms consultant.
He wants to address the impacts of major development in Shinfield South, and is concerned about the failures to address the needs of the local communities.
A member of his local Neighbourhood Watch, he wants to tackle growing anti-social behaviour in the area.
Marcus McDowell, Labour
Marcus grew up in locally and has lived in Three Mile Cross for the last four years.
He works as a developer in the IT sector and has one child, who attends school in Wokingham.
Marcus and the Shinfield Labour team have been campaigning to reduce speed limits from 40 mph to 30 mph.
Marcus and the team have spoken to hundreds of residents recently but no one has mentioned any councillor showing any interest on this problem.
