I have been working extremely hard in the areas already covered, and with the additional areas such as Libraries and Museums I can help make a real difference in Swindon Borough Council. Across the portfolio there are different challenges and opportunities facing the Council, and I will be using my experience in marketing and the leisure industry to help the Council move forward positively.
