“I’m headteacher of a local school and have made my home in Wark.

Full statement

For the past four years, I’ve been a councillor on Hexham Town Council, where I have worked hard to put people, animals and the planet at the forefront of our work. Key aspects of my work have included chairing the Remembrance Day Sub-Committee, poverty-proofing the council’s events and signposting residents and visitors to local businesses. As your local councillor, I would fight equally hard for our beautiful area, helping to make it an even better place to live, work and explore.”
