As I am sure many of you have noticed in the latest Focus, I am standing down as a councillor for Knaphill.  It has been a real honour to serve residents as councillor in Knaphill for the last four years.  In the next few months I am likely to be moving to London to make […]

Talking to residents recently about the consultation regarding the development of the land at Brookwood Farm, there are, as is to be expected, key themes which come up time and time again.  These recurring themes, are the points around which I will formulate my checklist of aspects I will look for in the details of […]

I wholeheartedly and sincerely wish to encourage residents in Knaphill to vote for Lisa Harding on 5th May. Lisa is possibly the most energetic, dedicated and empathetic candidate I have ever met.
