Having lived in Crawley all my life and grown up in Pound Hill, I am a young person who wants to see more younger voices involved in and heard in local affairs, and to ensure a greater understanding of the unique challenges we face. If elected to represent the neighbourhood I grew up in, I will work to support measures that will protect the New Town’s precious community assets, paid for by local people over decades and ensure Crawley retains a single, distinctive council voice.
