Graeme Coombes is the Councillor for Wilshamstead Ward which covers the historic village of Wilstead and the new development of Wixams. He has been an active Conservative campaigner for many years and has served as a local Councillor on three separate occasions.
Since his election in 2011, Graeme has fought the Liberal Democrat Mayor's plan for a landfill site to be situated right next to Wixams, demanded improved broadband speeds in the locality and called for easier access to basic GP healthcare services for the residents of Wixams and Wilstead. He sits on the Council's Wixams Committee and is Vice-Chair of the Environment and Sustainable Communities Committee.
In his day job, Graeme has worked in the conference and events industry.
Graeme says: 'Wixams is a new, growing and dynamic place to be, with a vibrant and diverse group of residents. Wilstead is a beautiful, historic village with many longstanding inhabitants who have kept a real village feel to the area despite the big changes happening nearby. It is a great honour for me to represent the area that I live in.'
