“As Chair of Wooburn Residents’ Association, I think it would be hard to hope for a better champion of the needs of local people than Stuart Wilson.
Many times, I have witnessed Stuart going out of his way to listen to the concerns people have, and then to respond in a way that shows he has understood.
Whether the issues are rogue developers, poor planning, inconsiderate parking, road safety or social injustice, he has worked tirelessly to identify fair and practical ways to address them - and then to deliver.
Stuart Wilson is like a dog with a bone in his determination to make things happen that will deliver a fair and positive outcome for all in our area. ”
