I am passionate about ensuring the residents of Forton and Gosport are heard and represented. As part of my community work, I am the Chair of Gosport Heritage Open Days, the coordinator of The Centre which assists rough sleepers, veterans and vulnerable people and the coordinator of Gosport Speedwatch to keep our roads safe. Married with two children, family is very important to me and I am keen to improve our area for all ages.
