Hello

I was born and raised on the East Coast of South Africa and enjoy surfing,  biking, photography and wildlife.  I work in engineering, specialising in digital information management and have been lucky enough to work all around the world which has given me a unique insight to different cultures.

I have lived in Castle Point and Benfleet for 17 years with my incredible wife and our young daughter.  My wife is a third-generation resident. We are both keen to preserve what makes Castle Point so special; our close-knit community and the green spaces. 

I believe that a Borough Council is there to do good, be transparent and look after the local residents, not their masters in Parliament!

This is why I have joined The People’s Independent Party; we come from all walks of life and various political backgrounds but we all have one thing in common; doing what is right for Castle Point!

I want to improve facilities for our children and families, reduce development on Green Belt, pressurise Essex County Council to repair our roads and do whatever we can to make Castle Point a safer place to live.  I want to see proper fiscal transparency in our Essex County Council, and positive action too, rather than photo opportunities when one pothole is filled in.

I am not a politician; I simply want to see a council that operates for the residents, and this is why I have chosen to stand as a councillor for our beloved community.

Please vote for The People’s Independent Party to save Castle Point and save our community.
