I live locally and I have spent the majority of my life in our town.

I worked for the NHS for 25 years and more recently I have been working for a charity, supporting families in need.

I love Whitby, it’s such a great place to live. I am standing for election again because I enjoy helping people who are struggling and I want to do my bit for our community.

I’m always reporting fly-tipping and asking for graffiti to be removed because it brings our area down and I don’t want that.

These are the streets where I grew up and I want to make a positive difference to the lives of local people who live here, so I hope you will re-elect me on Thursday 4th May.
