Kevin John Howard Osborne

Labour candidate for Darfield

Labour

Since first being elected in 2021 I have worked hard to be a strong voice for Darfield and surrounding communities in the Town Hall, to gain improvements to our area and increase the quality of life for all. My one aim has always been to do the very best I can for the people of Darfield. It has been a challenge but it's one I relish. This role has never been so as important whilst local families struggle under the Tory cost of living crisis. the experience I have gained will enable me to fight for Darfield's corner during these difficult times. I am not afraid to take on the touch challenges we face. I am not afraid to take on companies and agencies who serve our community but could do better such as Yorkshire Water, BT Openreach, E-On and the Environment Agency. I'm not afraid to stand up and fight for what's best for our community whether that's housing, policing, community cohesion or planning. I'm proud to represent you in Barnsley Council; with your support that work can continue.
