It was a pleasure to organise and host this event last Thursday. A brilliant group supporting candidates and the cause - whilst having a great evening!Last week Conservative Friends of the Armed Forces held our annual fundraiser on the rooftop of the NED private members club in central London. We are incredibly grateful to the kind donor/sponsor of the champagne reception, Guy Wilson, for his generosity. 55 people attended in including Ministers, MPs, Special Advisers, representatives from industry, members and friends and we raised £4000 for parliamentary candidates with military backgrounds for the forthcoming General Election. A huge thank you to everyone who attended! ... See MoreSee Less

Earlier in the month I was honoured to join the The Coalition for Global Prosperity Future Leaders program in Windsor Castle for a two day conference covering Development and Defence. The chance to stay in the Castle, in St George's house, was wonderful and the lectures were thought provoking, informative and challenging. It was a real pleasure to discuss some of the most important topics of the day with a group of open minded, well informed colleagues. ... See MoreSee Less

As many of you are aware I have previously had the honour of standing as a Conservative parliamentary candidate twice before.
At the next General Election, I'm hoping to again.
With selections taking place this summer, I've created this video to support my applications.
For those of you interested in politics, I hope you enjoy it. ... See MoreSee Less

It was an honour to be invited down to speak to the Association and a pleasure to meet such an interesting, articulate, thoughtful, sensitive group of Conservatives!
May and Robert were wonderful hosts and I finally got the chance to catch up with Sir Robert.
I really enjoyed sharing my experiences of military service and how it applies to the Party today.Last week we joined the fantastic Poole Conservatives and local MP Sir Robert Syms for a discussion event.
Questions from the audience touched on Northern Ireland, the treatment of Veterans and the difficult nature of modern warfare. Literally everyone who attended made a contribution - and wonderful surroundings.
A huge thank you to everyone who was able to attend! ... See MoreSee Less
