Bob is Labour's choice to represent the people of Bewdley and Rock in the coming county election.

Bob lives locally and is now retired, having worked in industry as a maintenance engineer. He is widowed and has four daughters and eight grand children.

Bob's work in the community includes being a Cookley parish councillor, for 12 years, and a local school governor.

Bob says the Government's extra £300 per pupil is a massive financial bonus for local schools. Money for pre-school children benefits their education and future development after years of under funding by the Tories.

Bob's interests also include planning, highways and protection of rural areas.

He supports greater protection and appreciation of our rural areas creating more opportunities through investment while working to maintain the traditions and character of our local community. He is also a keen supporter of the Britain in Europe Campaign.
