Welcome to My Website
Central Wight is one of the Island's largest electoral divisions and includes the parishes of Brighsone, Gatcombe, Rookley and Shorwell. Although this is a large area all these villages and the smaller hamlets share similar advantages - they are in one of the most beautiful parts of our Island and are close knit communities with a real sense of belonging. This was very much in evidence during the recent elections where we had a turnout of nearly 60%, the highest on the Island and a sure sign of people's interest in local affairs. I would like to thank all those who found the time to talk to me during the election campaign; your kindness was greatly appreciated. Shortly after the election I was asked to join the Council's Cabinet and have been given the resources portfolio. In this capacity I have responsibility for the Council's Finance & Budget, Human Resources, Property and IT - a major challenge in these difficult times. As part of my Cabinet responsibilities I sit on the following committees and panels: - Employment Committee - Audit Committee (as a non voting member) - IWC Pension Committee - Transforming Social Care Member Review Panel - Schools Reorganisation Member Review Panel - Business Transformation Member Review panel (Chairman) I would like to stress that I am here to represent everyone in the Ward so if there is any issue you would like to discuss then please get in touch. I attend Parish Council Meetingss within the Ward as follows: Brighstone: Second Wednesday in the month 7:30pm at Brighstone School Gatcombe : First Monday in the month 7:00pnm at Chilllerton & Rookley School Rookley: First Wednesday in the month at 7:30pm at Rookley Methodist Hall Shorwell: First Tuesday in the month 7:30pm at Shorwell Parish Hall You can also get hold of me by phone or e-mail.
