'We've listened for long enough, now it's our turn to talk”
I’ve lived in and around the Bingley area for most of my life and enjoy being part of the multicultural City of Bradford. My interests include playing rugby, debating, reading, and perhaps most importantly some casual playing of Call of Duty…
I like to think of myself as being politically aware and for me that is having a comitment to improve my local area for young people. I will always make sure I represent your voice and will endeavour for change.
There are several issues that I will concentrate on; cheaper travel throughout the Bradford District for young people, more facilities for young people (in terms of sports, workshops etc), and a greater level of involvement by young people in making those key decisions which will affect us all. With all this in mind we can work to ensure a better future for our area!
