I’m delighted to announce that my candidature for the Midhurst Division of West Sussex County Council elections on 7th May has been accepted. I will be standing, as many would expect, for the Conservative Party. I have been the district councillor at Chichester District Council for Easebourne, Lodsworth and Heyshott for the last 10 years.

I need your vote on May 7th

Let's Talk

I have lived in Easebourne with my family for over 20 years. I was a career army officer, serving worldwide.  I have been involved in a number of entrepreneurial activities, working in both the charitable and university sectors; currently I work with Cloud computing applications focusing on membership organisations.

I was a branch chairman of the Midhurst Conservative Association before being elected to represent Easebourne, Lodsworth and Heyshott on Chichester District Council. I have been chair of the Corporate Governance & Audit committee, an active member of the Environment panel and the Economic Development Panel.

I seek to bring a straightforward view to many local challenges: support vulnerable people so they can play a full role in society, encourage innovative business activities and maintain the unique and beautiful character of the local area.

Above all I believe, as councillors, we should enthuse others to become actively involved in our hard won democratic processes, to improve the lives of those in our local communities.
