Kabeer Kher
Reform UK councillor for Yare & Necton ED
Active on State
Council: Norfolk
Term ends: 2 May 2030
In 2024 I established the Mid Norfolk branch of Reform UK. As chairman I grew the membership of Mid Norfolk to 650 members and over the course of 2 years have hosted the largest fundraisers in Norfolk. I live in Attleborough with my wife and two children and have done for over a decade. I grew up in Northern Ireland. Growing up in N Ireland I took a keen interest in Politics and Economics from a young age. In school I studied Politics & Economics at A Level. I went on to University in Glasgow where I studied International Business, majoring in Economics. I studied International Relations, Commerce and Human Resource Management in Montpellier, France. I completed my studies with an MBA In Banking from the University of London. I started my career in British Telecom where I was a project manager in BT Retail. Later I started my own business and helped to run my family’s business. Finally in 2015 I transitioned into Financial Services based in Norfolk with my wife and 2 children, mainly to be closer to my wife’s family. My extended family have also settled in Mid Norfolk. I spend most of spare time reading and learning about the world around me, but I do like to enjoy the occasional football, tennis or rugby match with my family and friends. Originally my family came to this country from India in 1952. My family are of Hindu background and my wife is a practising Christian. Our children attended a Church of England primary school and have been brought up with both Christian and Hindu traditions in mind. .
