I love Hamble. Since the first moments when we drove to the village Square, we fell in love with the area and were lucky to find our house in Old Priory Close, moving in October 2020 from Mitcham, Greater London.
I want to be a Parish Councillor to contribute to the village's upkeep, ensuring residents can live their lives the way they want and without hinderance. My vision is to ensure residents get the right services and information. It's all about the people and the place. Being an avid dog walker, I love meeting residents, talking to them and understanding their points of view and concerns. For me, this is part of village life and the more people we speak to, the safer the village becomes.
I am fully employed (mainly remotely) by Surrey County Council as a Project Manager for the Resources service, in the IT&D team. My focus is not merely about systems, it heavily focuses on processes, people, partners, improving systems, improving processes, and reducing expenditure.
I would like the Council to explore more facilities for the younger generation. I understand it already provides a lot of facilities, but I am sure we do more for them. Coming from London, I have a pet hate related to unnecessary signage; some of it is useful and some of it almost creates a negative impact.
