I am pleased to announce that my Nomination Form has now been validated and I am one of the official candidates for Arnold North.

I have served in The Royal Air Force, given 12 years as a school governor, coached basketball for 4 years in Nottinghamshire Schools, spent the last 13 years delivering welfare to veterans across Nottinghamshire for two military charities and have received the ‘Pride of Nottinghamshire’ award for 40 years of voluntary community service, so if I can serve my Country and my County, then let me serve you.

Last year was elected as a Borough Councillor for Bestwood St Albans, which the largest part is within the Arnold North Devision.

More recently I decided to give Gedling residents a voice by starting the ‘Save Gedling Petition’ against joining the City Boundary and now has over 3700 signatures.

We are the only party in Gedling, that are actively fighting to keep Gedling out of the City boundary and currently the only Councillors giving Gedling a voice.

We both believe that Arnold deserves better, that is why I am pledging to you, that I will work full-time; listening to your concerns, acting on your priorities, to deliver real change for your community.
