Kingsley Abrams
Labour candidate for St Helier West
Labour
As an experienced a housing worker I am well placed to take up residents’ housing concerns. As a former Deputy Leader, Chief Whip and Finance Chair of a neighbouring Council, I have the experience to be your voice on the Council from day one. I will speak up for tenants and residents at Council and Committee meetings, and remain accountable to the people of St. Helier West. If elected I will work closely with the Police, business leaders, health authority, local schools and community organisations to make St. Helier West a better place to live, work and play.
