Hi. I'm Jonathan Rose

Torrington - Town & District

ELECTED!!!

I came to Great Torrington in 1975 and at 19 was the youngest worker in the condensary at the milk factory. I helped to lay pathways on the Commons and to build the lake and later as a town councillor, led a group of volunteers to upgrade seven miles of pathways outside the Commons.

I campaign for the environment and live my life in tune with recycling and sustainable use of resources. I sat on the regional council of the Green Party for a few years, promoting national awareness of pollution and still help local groups clean beaches.

As a councillor I will encourage landowners and the whole community to support biodiversity in the face of climate change.
