Jonathan has watched Horsham grow over 40 years and wants to see a town full of opportunity where people have influence and autonomy as part of a responsible and caring society. A big believer in green spaces, he is known for campaigning on the natural environment.
Jonathan was previously councillor for Roffey North, and has chosen to stand again here, to help with the many local issues faced by residents in the ward. He says he brings fresh ideas and new approaches, good practice business principles and clear impartial thinking.
He did his industry training here and in Crawley in 1984 and moved back with his family in 1995. He is a registered Pharmacist with an MBA and is a keen amateur astronomer.
Founding and running two healthcare strategy consultancy businesses in a highly regulated ethical industry has given him solid financial and business credentials.
He says: “The council plays a big part in the lives of the people it represents must be trusted and open. We must never forget what a responsibility and privilege it is to represent those whom we serve. Fairness, equality, transparency and delivering value for money are essential in local government.”
