I moved into Chiswick (to a flat on the Turnham Green ward side of Devonshire Road) in 1983 and currently live in the Gunnersbury Park Garden Estate conservation area in the north west corner of the ward. I spend my life reporting fly-tipping and overflowing bins, campaigning against speeding and rat runs and lobbying for improved street lighting, safer road junctions and better pedestrian crossings. I’m obsessed with our independent shops, cafés and restaurants, supporting them as much as is humanly possible; they are, for me, what makes Chiswick special. I can often be found in a local café with a cup of coffee and, if it’s brunch time, avocado smash (with halloumi, a poached egg and dukkah). I want to be a strong voice for Chiswickians, protecting our lifestyle and keeping our area special. In my other life, I’m a self-employed reputation crisis management consultant having previously worked in politics, lobbying and corporate communications and as an occasional journalist.
