I was honoured to be elected as a Labour councillor for Churchill Ward – in Pimlico, London SW1 – at the Westminster City Council elections in May 2018.
I believe that politics should be, above all, practical. That’s why I stood to be a councillor – because I wanted to help people in a practical, tangible way.
As well as working for the residents of Churchill, I am also the Shadow Cabinet Member for Community. I’m particularly passionate about arts and creativity, and their ability to improve our lives and bring communities together.
You can find out more about what I do as a councillor on the Churchill Labour Councillors website and the Westminster Council Labour group website. Those sites include my Council contact details.
Here’s a blog post about my maiden speech as a councillor – which focused on the importance of the arts and access to them – and a post I wrote about joining the Labour party in 2015.
