PHIL REECE (LABOUR)

I’m delighted to have been selected to stand as Labour candidate for Wolstanton.

I grew up in May Bank and have lived in Wolstanton for the past 22 years with my partner and three – now grown up – children.

I have two grandchildren, one of whom attends a local nursery in Wolstanton.

For 30 years I have worked in the social care and health sector, working with people with a range of disabilities and needs, and for the past 17 years I have worked in mental health services.

I care deeply about local and national issues that impact on the lives of our citizens and believe that change, first and foremost, happens at a local grass roots level.

I am committed to making sure that local people have a voice, and that those local voices are heard. I am looking forward to meeting with the residents of Wolstanton and listening to their concerns and issues.
