I am passionate about St Annes and passionate about making it a better place. The chaos of the current Conservative administration in the County Council is putting jobs, livelihoods and vital service at risk. As government cuts deepen, the Tories are not standing up and demanding fair funding for our county. Instead they’re putting up council tax, making you pay more while they deliver less.

My job in the library service gives me an insight into the importance of quality local services, especially for the most vulnerable in our society. Yet services such as social care, schools and adult community learning have been cut to the bone. As your councillor I will fight for your services, representing your needs and the needs of our community.
