“It’s a real honour to stand as your candidate in Katesgrove — in the town I’m proud to call home.”

“I’m originally from Hong Kong and came to the UK after the social movement. Today, I live and work in Reading, and I’m deeply grateful to the community that has welcomed my fellow Hongkongers and me so warmly. I hope to give back to the community that has given us so much.”

“Community has always been at the heart of what I believe in. Whether Katesgrove is a short stop in your renting journey or the place you’ve chosen as your forever home, your voice matters. I want to hear your concerns and work with you to address them.”

“Since being selected to stand in Katesgrove, I’ve been actively involved alongside local community associations and volunteering groups — from weekend litter-picking to bringing residents’ concerns directly to Council meetings. I’m committed to making Katesgrove an even better place for you.”

“I understand that many of you have lost trust in politics. That’s why I don’t take the opportunity to stand here lightly. I hope to earn your trust, and together we can work for change that you can see and feel.”

“With your support, we can make Katesgrove even better.”
