Candidate in Bewdley East Ward

Living in Bewdley all my life, I care passionately about its past, present and future. Having served as a Bewdley Retained firefighter for 35 years, many as the Officer in charge, I later served as a Community First Responder for 16 years.

Supporting local organisations, I am at present the Chairman of the Bewdley Branch of the Royal British Legion.

As a town Councillor for 24 years, being Mayor twice in 1999 and 2010, and with the support of my wife, Carol, also a past Mayor, I have always strived to put Bewdley first. In 2013 I was honoured to be awarded an MBE by Queen Elizabeth II for services to our town and the NHS Ambulance Service.
