Description automatically generated

I am a Chartered Accountant, married with two grown up children and grew up in Arborfield before going to university followed by accountancy training in London. I have lived locally since 1982 and attend Arborfield Church regularly.

Passionate about preserving and improving the environment to benefit current and future residents, I am committed to delivering the best possible council services, including getting the major decisions right such as the Local Plan Update. This should be fair to all residents across the Borough, not disadvantaging one area over another.

I have raised my family in the area and have contributed to my community as a local councillor for many years. I have stood up for the issues and services for my community often against the view of the majority on the council.

I have believed in and have successfully represented my community and delivering for them. I supported the provision of the Arborfield bypass and the Shinfield relief road.

I have strongly opposed the issue of overdevelopment in the area since 1991 and have twice successfully opposed housing development in Grazeley.

With your support, I will stand up for Arborfield and work with councillors, the Council Leader and our local MP to make a real difference here.
