Reform Councillor, East Sussex County Council, Bexhill South Division
Victoria lives in Bexhill South and is not a career councillor. She spent three decades building a career in film and television production finance — ending up as a financial controller responsible for supervising production accountants through government audits on multi-million pound projects. She understands exactly how public money should be managed. And she can see that East Sussex County Council has not been managing it well.
As Councillor for Bexhill South, Victoria is focused on delivering tangible results: better value for local services, support for the local economy, and assistance for young families. He acts as a strong advocate for residents, offering practical help and advice where it is needed.
As a member of the Rother Forum — which brings residents together directly with the police, local GPs, and charities — Victoria knows what Bexhill residents are dealing with: social care waiting lists that are too long, a seafront and town centre that deserve better investment, parking that is damaging local trade, and a county council that has borrowed £211 million and still cannot fix the roads.
Victoria stood for election because the De La Warr Pavilion, the seafront, and Bexhill’s identity as a destination worth visiting deserve a county councillor who will fight for them — and because residents who need care deserve a council that has the financial discipline to fund it properly. A member of the Production Guild of Great Britain, Victoria is a quilt-maker, enthusiastic cook of world cuisine, and a reluctant golfer.
