INTRODUCING ADRIAN DODGSON, YOUR NEW RADSTOCK TOWN COUNCILLOR

My name is Adrian Dodgson and I have recently joined the Radstock Town Council as a co-opted member, representing the residents of the Clandown ward.

I have lived and worked in the Bath and North East Somerset area for most of my adult life having previously grown up overseas and in the Midlands.

I moved to Radstock in 2005, along with my wife and two of my four children. The children attended local secondary schools and colleges and my wife works locally.

My working background is in retail banking, and I have spent many years working in high street branches, and laterally in the IT department of Head Office in Bristol. I have recently been made redundant and am now looking forward to having a bit more time to catch up on some of the interests and pastimes that I have not had time to do.

I am also keen to be more involved in the community and this was a major factor in my decision to become a local councillor.

I am hoping that I can bring some of my skills and experiences to the council committee and meetings and to benefit the residents of Clandown and Radstock.
