PARTY: Conservative
OCCUPATION: Retired
AGE: 77

I have lived in Battenhall since 1975 and have represented the area as a Conservative city councillor since 1991, always speaking up for residents.
During this time I have been leader of the opposition, leader of the council and mayor of Worcester.
I now chair our planning committee and represent Worcester on the regional planning body.
I also chair a group of councillors from Worcester, Wychavon and Malvern Hills working on a joint strategy to manage housing growth imposed on us from Whitehall.
We aim for improved infrastructure to minimise adverse impact on local people and our environment.
