I became a Town Councillor in May 2011 as an Independent. I have lived in the town since 1999 with my Civil Partner Robert Vickery (also a Town Councillor). I have a background in Public Administration through work in local government and for a Lottery Distributor. I also work as a volunteer for a leading advice charity. I decided to stand for election because of my belief that the Council needs to involve the local people more in the decision making that effects their life. I see the next four years as a crucial tim for Dawlish with many economic difficulties to overcome. I can be contacted on 01626 888378 or at home address/email as listed above.
