Reluctant Councilor , for a number of years I have been approached to stand as a Councilor for the area, having seen the ongoing increase in my own Council Tax, I decided to "put my money where my mouth is".
My background is in running my own Financial Services Company; specializing mainly in the Mortgage Market.
This provided a firm base for a common sense approach to assisting the Parish Council in adopting some basic principals in running their accounting.
I have worked along side a number of other Councilors in keeping this year's increase to a minimum, and hope over the next year or two to continue to keep increase to an absolute minimum.
I was born at Hythe hospital and have lived locally most of my life, being educated at Noadswood School ; I have been married for over 30 years and have two daughters, whom have both left home. |
