I have lived in Bridlington for over 15 years and feel privileged to live in such a beautiful area and be part of such a warm and welcoming local community. I am a self employed sole trader in antiques and collectables and a personal trainer at a local gym where I take great pleasure in helping people to improve their lives and achieve their goals . If elected as a councillor, I would endeavour to help the community as a whole, in Bridlington and the East Riding, and would play an active role in encouraging and unlocking the great potential of our area and it’s residents. I am passionate about our area and recognise the problems of deprivation, healthcare, policing, education, and the environment, which we desperately need to tackle.
I have previously stood as the Conservative candidate for Bridlington North in the May 2022 By-election and, although I managed to increase the Conservative vote with a strong and realistic campaign based on local issues within the remit of the ERYC, I was unable to get over the line, finishing in second place. Given the opportunity, I plan to reverse this result in 2023!
I am an active member of the East Riding Conservative Association, and am the chairman of the Bridlington branch of the association. I’m blessed to have a beautiful daughter who is in Year 6 at Bay Primary School in Bridlington, where I am proud to have taken on the responsibility of being a parent governor at the school. I am also a trustee of The Parker Home Trust which supports talented young people in Bridlington and sit on the Beverley & Holderness Internal Drainage Board.
Outside of politics, I take a keen and active interest in health and fitness and enjoy most sports. Fell walking and the countryside are other passions and I frequently walk the trails on our stunning heritage coastline around Bridlington, Flamborough and Sewerby.
