STUART TERRYThetford Foodbank volunteer and local sports enthusiast Stuart Terry is yourcandidate for the Town Council (Ladies Estate) and Breckland council (Boudica Ward)

“I was born in Bury St. Edmunds, and grew up on the Barnham Cross

Estate in Thetford. I went to Queensway Middle School, and then on to

Staniforth High School. After leaving school, I had a short spell in the

Army, before returning to Thetford to live and work until my parents;

who had moved to Thetford as part of the London overspill initiative

relocated to Kent and I decided to join them. Four years later, I

returned home to Thetford again, where I met my wife - whom I’ve

been married to for twenty-six years and we have a teenage son. The

company I work for are based in Thetford, and in my spare time I

volunteer at Thetford Foodbank. Over the years, I have seen Thetford

grow and expand, and feel passionately about my home town. I would

love to see it flourish into a thriving town, with plenty of diversity. I am

saddened by the closure of the children’s centres and reduction of

services generally and I am committed to fighting to protect the interests of the local community, and

residents that I represent. Having lived in Thetford for 50 years I am extremely excited about Thetford's

future and our next generation. Thetford has an awful lot to offer and with the right people and the right

decisions, it can thrive and prosper, I would be very grateful for the opportunity to serve you, the residents

of Boudica Ward".

DAVE HODGKINSONYour NEW Town Councillor! "I am delighted to be elected as your Town Councillor for the Woodlands,

Fairfields, Highlands and Norwich Road estate part of the wider Boudica

Ward. I have lived on the Norwich Road Estate since 1975 and have been a

part of numerous community groups for many years including Norwich Road

Resident's Association. I would urge residents to vote for Stuart Terry in the

Town Council election for the Ladies Estate and District Councillor ballot for

the Boudica Ward as a whole - I know that he would be a fantastic Councillor

and I would very much like to work with him over the next four years".
