I dont usually share my cllr work on here. You all know how much work neil has put in for Ukraine. So I thought i would share this on here.❤️
Many of you already know Neil, but I wanted to share that he has decided to put his name forward and stand as an Independent Town Councillor for Ross-on-Wye West.
Ross is Neil’s home, he has lived here all his life. Long before I joined the council over seven years ago, Neil was already dedicated to serving this community. He spent 35 years in the fire service, with a huge part of that career right here in Ross keeping local families and businesses safe.
He’s never been someone to sit on the sidelines. Whether it was being out in the pouring rain at midnight helping shop owners protect their livelihoods during the floods, working behind the scenes on town council working groups, or helping pull together major events like the carnival, Neil is always among the first to roll up his sleeves when the town needs him.
Having sat through countless council meetings and working groups over the years, he understands how the local council works, but more importantly, he knows what needs improving. He’s running as an Independent because his only priority is Ross, listening to what residents actually care about, speaking up with common sense, and getting things done without party politics getting in the way.
I’ll be right beside him supporting his campaign over the coming weeks. Neil has spent a lifetime turning up for Ross-on-Wye, and I know he will bring that exact same dedication, integrity, and hard work to the council table.
Please keep an eye out for his campaign updates, and feel free to say hello or ask questions if you see him out and about!
