Jonathan Brown

Labour candidate for Grange & Alver Valley

Active on State

Labour

I have lived in the ward, with my young family, since 2014. In that time I have been a proud member of the community, leading local events and supporting causes, all the while listening to residents’ concerns. My background is in IT solutions for charities and I intend to use that experience to serve Grange and Alver Valley as its councillor. We have a fantastic piece of Gosport here. The beautiful Alver Valley on our doorstep, and the most genuine people you could hope to meet. We are also unfairly overlooked when it comes to handing out funding, which is why I got involved in local politics. For over a decade our representatives have done a poor job in standing up for our area and it is time that changed. Gosport Labour is on your side. We rise above childish political games to deliver on the priorities of Gosport’s residents.
