Edward Owen Turner

Edward Owen Turner

Labour candidate for Rose Hill & Iffley

Labour

Living in the heart of Rose Hill with my partner, and two children who go to school locally, I am rooted in my community, serving residents since 2002. Alongside my council role, I work for a university, and am a referee for semi-professional football. Some of my local achievements include establishing the new community centre, winning on grit bins, sorting fly-tipping issues, co-ordinating community support during the pandemic and volunteering with Rose Hill Youth FC. In this time I am pleased to have been able to work with so many local groups from Rose Hill and Donnington Advice Centre to Rose Hill runners. I am passionate about getting things done and making a difference for Rose Hill and delivering for residents.
