The Liberal Democrat candidate for Highworth is Jenny Shorten. Jenny, 56, has lived in Highworth for 32 years and is a former Town Councillor there.
Jenny wants to see proper provision for affordable housing locally so people who want to live in the town have the chance to do so. She welcomes the new developments at the Rec, but is worried that there is still not enough for young people to do in the town.
She wants to encourage local employment including a good range of retail outlets and businesses for people to support.
Jenny believes local representatives should listen to and speak up for the communities and for the services they believe are important. "If elected, I will stand up for what is needed in Highworth, including against the Conservative controlled council. This is a local election about local issues and that's what's most important in my view"
Jenny is a freelance trainer and marketing consultant, working from her home base in Highworth.
