Passionate about the local area
Stourbridge has been my home for nearly ten years. I grew up in the Black Country and I’m passionate about the local area. I’ve been a Labour Party member for 7 years and I care deeply about my community and demonstrating how Labour can do things differently.
I became involved in politics because I did not feel represented by those in power and wanted to make a difference in my community. I was frustrated by the deterioration of public services and the widening gap in inequality and opportunity. I realised the only way to make tangible change happen was to be the change I wanted to see, and the Labour Party gave me that opportunity.
I am in my second year as Councillor for Wollaston and Stourbridge Town, having contested the seat three times and finally won a seat back from the Conservatives after 12 years. I helped elect a second Labour Councillor in my ward and we are set to take all 3 seats at the next local election.
I’m committed to making Stourbridge and the UK a fairer, greener, and more tolerant place to live.
I have a proven record of standing up for Stourbridge and working hard to deal with issues and make this a better place to live for everyone. I have established relationships with local stakeholders and work alongside them to achieve positive outcomes. I am a Senior Operating Department Practitioner in the NHS and I’ve witnessed first-hand the devastation this government has had on our NHS, as well as the police, economy, housing, environment and more.
I’m committed to making Stourbridge and the UK a fairer, greener, and more tolerant place to live and It is the honour of my life to represent my hometown in Westminster and deliver on Labour’s vision for a better Britain.
