I was born in Banbury in 1952 and later attended Banbury School.  After spending three years at agricultural college I returned to farm at Bodicote.  My long sufferering wife Carole ws born and brought up in Grimsbury (as was her mother) and we have been blessed with a son and daughter.

Although only recently elected to Banbury Town Council as Conservative Member for Easington Ward, I am also a Member of Cherwell District Council for the same Ward.  I serve on the Resources and General Services Committee and the Banbury in Bloom Working Party.

I am always prepared to help anyone to the best of my ability.
