I have lived at the heart of Norbiton’s King Henry Estate for 15 years with my wife and teenage daughter. A former Secondary School teacher and active teacher representative, I now work as Casework manager to a local Member of Parliament.

I have taken an active role in community activities in and around Norbiton all the time I have lived here as, for example, a School Governor, a trustee for various youth organisations and an active member of St Johns Church (opposite Homebase).

For the last 5 years I have been a councillor in neighbouring Canbury ward where I have been a hard-working advocate for local residents and their concerns. I now want to do the same for the hard-pressed community in which I live.
