In Henry's own words

I was born right here in Reading Central, in the Royal Berkshire Hospital, and grew up in Spencers Wood. Like you, I’m tired of feeling that Britain just doesn’t work any more.

After leaving to study Computer Science at university, I returned during the Covid-19 pandemic to train as a teacher at the University of Reading. I now live here in central Reading, and proudly work for the local NHS in digital services, having previously worked as a civil servant and consultant.

I see first-hand, through my work in the NHS, the disastrous state the country is in - so I’m standing for Parliament to do something about it. Fixing our NHS, our economy and our country won’t be easy, but with your help, we can get our town the fair deal we know it deserves.

Is this you?
