Mr George Brown

Welcome to My Website

It is a pleasure to welcome you to my website and I hope that my constituents in Cowes Medina will make full use of the Isle of Wight Council's electronic network. It gives instant access to planning applications, for example, and allows residents to record their objections, or support, with a minimum of fuss.

Please also use this site to exchange your views with me directly. I will always visit anyone in Cowes Medina who may have a problem, or any difficulty in dealing with the Council. Just let me know what is the matter. Your contact with me will remain strictly confidential, if that is your wish.

For my part, I will act decisively and even-handledly on behalf of all constituents. That is what a good Conservative Council is all about. Please put me to the test.

Biography:	After National Service in the Royal Navy as a Seaman Officer (RNR), I read law at Cambridge and rowed in two Oxford and Cambridge Boat Races, painfully without a win. I then joined ICI, working in HR in Head Office and on a large manufacturing site. From there I moved into worldwide legal and commercial negotiations with a venture consortium. That completed, I was appointed to the Board of an international engineering company, where I served successively as Marketing Director, Managing Director and Chairman. More recently, I was a founding partner in a firm of international merger and acquisition brokers. In the public sector, I have been an appointed member of a New Town Development Corporation, with financial responsibility, and member of a Quango on international development. Since the early 1970’s I have managed my family’s urban property interests in the North of England and have considerable experience in leasehold tenure. My direct involvement in tourism has been through the ownership and direction of a nineteen bedroom seaside resort hotel and, more recently, in marketing a top-rated bed and breakfast and holiday flat business in the New Forest. I was elected a Steward of Henley Royal Regatta in 1969 and have served as Captain and President of Leander Club. I live in Cowes with my wife, Sue.
