Watford has been a major part of my life for more than a decade now and it is the people who make it such a special place. As Chief Executive of Watford Community Housing I have the privilege of getting to know people from across the town, from the residents in the communities we serve through to the local organisations we work in partnership with.
I am Watford born and bred and proud to be so.

There is so much to like about Watford, speaking as a member of Watford Rotary Club, my number one like is the people. Their generosity and kindness never ceases to amaze me, especially when we are making our collections at Christmas time. I am often asked if the money goes to local charities and when I confirm it does, they always give.
