welcome

Welcome to my website.

I am delighted to have been successful in being elected as a Councillor for Sherrards Ward on 1st May 2008. I thank the residents for their support and I will do my best to serve the Ward as a local Councillor.

I am married to Lesley and have 2 children, Scott and Karen. Having lived in Welwyn Garden City for 24 years I am familiar with many of the issues that concern people. One of those issues is the local Health Service. I have worked all my life in the NHS and still do. I will continue to press the authorities to give us at local level the very highest quality of services.

I am a keen supporter of improving Mental Health services. I worked for 9 years at Broadmoor Hospital and I'm aware that Mental Health is underfunded. Many people suffer mild Mental Health problems during their lifetime and investment to improve services should be a higher priority than it is. I have been elected as a Governor of the Hertfordshire Mental Health Foundation NHS Trust and I hear appeals against detention under the Mental Health Act.

I am elected to assist residents and I will make every effort to do so.
