Originally from Aberdare, I am married with 3 grown-up children. I joined the army at 17, serving in N.Ireland and the Falklands. I then joined the Met Police and Hampshire Police. I retired in 2009 and returned to Wales - choosing to live in Mumbles where I had holidays when young. I stood for election because I believe that if I live in an area I should contribute to get things done.
