This candidate was elected.
View councillor profileI’ve lived in Sunderland most of my life and have raised my family here. I got involved in local politics about three years ago because I want to make a difference, improving the lives of people here. For a long time I’ve been frustrated with the lack of vision for our city. The decline in public services is an issue for many people I speak to, so I would love the opportunity to represent Millfield and Thornholme along with Niall Hodson & Andrew Wood on the local Lib Dem Focus Team, making a real difference for everyone in our community.
