I was born and bred in Lancashire and now live with his wife and family in Scott Ward. I am passionate about Ormskirk and its history and want to help secure more improvements for the town, making it an even better place to live.

I have spent over 35 years working as a teacher, including 18 years as a secondary school headteacher, and believe in creating better opportunities for our young people, as well as strengthening our communities.

I want to help residents make their voices heard on local issues and to provide more support for independent businesses in Ormskirk.
