Chris Pruden
Liberal Democrats councillor for Bicester South and Ambrosden
Council: Cherwell
Term ends: 2 May 2030
Chris has been a resident of Bicester for almost 30 years, seeing a lot of changes in the area, with many being positive changes. Working in retail he knows how hard things can be for those who are having to work extra hours, trying to save money for something and seeing others suffer while not being able to help. That’s why Chris believes that those that represent us should remember they have a responsibility to the public over anyone else. “As a councillor I will listen to people and not just tell you what I think you want. This is why I became involved in local politics,” said Chris. “I can’t promise to solve every problem, but I do commit to doing my best, to listen and to keep in touch regularly.”
