I am a lifelong supporter Pompey in particular and football in general.
In my professional life I was a chartered town planner with 40 years’ experience, the last 30 of which was in senior positions at Portsmouth City council.
I was co-opted onto the Board in November 2017 as a representative of the Sub-Group and because of my knowledge of the planning background.
As a Board member I advised the Board on planning and stadium matters, particularly on the City Local Plan Review and its policy relating to Fratton Park and the surrounding area.
I prepared, submitted and obtained the planning permission for the Jimmy Dickinson statue (June 2023).
