ANDY TREE
Chase Ward (includes most of Bordon) & Leader of the Whitehill & Bordon Community Party

Where do I even begin! It can be very frustrating to hold those in power to account but also rewarding to help people and make a difference. I have strived to be have become a positive force for representing residents with decision-makers. I have hosted public Q&A sessions with the NHS, Police and Regeneration Company. Showing financial astuteness, we have maintained our grant aid budget to support organisations such as Citizens Advice. I ask my fellow residents to place their faith in me and my Whitehill & Bordon Community Party colleagues and elect us to EHDC for the first time. My April 2023 letter to residents as Leader of our Party can be read by clicking on this link: http://www.whitehillbordon.org.uk/letter.pdf

CATHERINE CLARK
Chase Ward (includes most of Bordon) & Deputy Leader of the Whitehill & Bordon Community Party

I am a mum of 4 and I live in Chalet Hill. I volunteer as a local Cub Scout Leader. I had been thinking about what else I could do to make my town a better place for my children to grow up in, so I decided to join the Whitehill & Bordon Community Party and stand for election and try to make Bordon a better place to live, listen to local people and help fight for what they want too. I hope people will support our local group to get onto EHDC for the first time.

In Chase ward you have TWO votes and so can vote for BOTH of us – Andy and Catherine!

MIKE STEEVENS
Hogmoor & Greatham Ward (includes most of Whitehill.)

I arrived in the UK from New Zealand aged 23, met my Wife Mo before setting off on our travels around Europe. On our return, we bought a house and I soon realised I’d made the right decision in making Britain my new home. I am mad about animals and keen golfer. I have been a member at Blackmoor Golf Club for 25 years taking part in many team events for the Club. I had never seriously considered becoming a councillor until recently. Being a local self-employed taxi driver, I’m frequently engaging with people and listening to their concerns. I would love the chance to follow this through and voice their concerns too. All I seem to hear lately are people simply complaining about what is wrong in their local area, transport routes, police presence and amenities to name a few. Being a councillor will give me a chance to help put things right.

KIRSTY MITCHELL
Hogmoor & Greatham Ward (includes most of Whitehill.)

As a single parent with a young son living in Whitehill with our dog, the environment in which my family live has become increasingly important to me and I am keen to in some way play a part in developing that environment. From clean, safe and open spaces to transportation, employment, medical facilities and sustainability – I have an interest in everything, not just for myself and my family, but for everyone in our community. I would very much like the opportunity to serve the residents of Whitehill Hogmoor & Greatham ward contribute to the excellent work of the Community Party.

In Hogmoor & Greatham ward you have TWO votes and so can vote for BOTH of us – Mike and Kirsty.

ADEEL SHAH
Pinewood Ward, Bordon

I want to make a positive difference. I have been serving as a Whitehill & Bordon Community Party Town Councillor since January 2023, where getting straight to work, I supported a grant to the Phoenix Theatre & Arts Centre and Citizens Advice East Hampshire. Living in Bordon within Pinewood Ward, I am already working hard for local charities, assisting the local Royal British Legion branch to collect for the poppy appeal, arranging multiple litter picks, tree planting sessions, directly helping with food drives and supporting Bordon Food Bank. I am a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.

PENNY FLUX
Lindford Ward

I live in Lindford with my three children, husband and two tortoises! Already passionate about making a difference locally, I am Chair of Governors at Weyford Nursery & Primary Academy – a voluntary role I have held for four years. I work in the pharmacy industry and hope to be able to use my knowledge to lobby hard for the health services so desperately required locally. My family and I are walking the length of Shipwright’s Way, and have loved watching the diversity of the amazing countryside we have on our doorstep, making protecting our valuable Greenspace another priority.
