Kieron was first elected to Local Government in Banbury in 1997. He currently represents southern Banbury on Banbury Town Council, Cherwell District Council and Oxfordshire County Council. His continuing motivation for public service comes from a resolute commitment to Banbury Town and improving opportunities for the next generation. Over his 20 years+ service, he has been a vocal campaigner for residents and helped to shape several local initiatives. He was instrumental in the delivery of Cherwell District Council’s Build! project which has provided over 120 affordable homes in the town and helped to reinstate community bus routes including the B1 in Easington, the B7a in Grimsbury and the B8 in Hardwick. He formerly led the Council's "brighter futures" programme which focused on improving outcomes for disadvantaged families and established Banbury Town Council’s snow wardens’ scheme.
Kieron is an ardent Horton General Hospital campaigner and serves on the Horton HOSC Committee which was set up to scrutinise the decision made by Oxfordshire University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (OUHFT) to downgrade the Horton’s maternity provision to a midwife-led only unit. His army background makes him a strong advocate of our armed forces. Kieron is the current Leader of Banbury Town Council. He is proud that under Conservative leadership, Banbury Town Council has not increased its share of residents' Council Tax bills for 9 years.
