Dan and Adrian who are both openly gay, said they were delighted to be selected in the ward which is central to Brighton’s LGBT community.
Dan Chapman said: “Having lived here all my life I am sad to see how our city has become run down in recent years. I am determined to work hard to make Queen’s Park an area to be proud of for the people who live here.”
Adrian Morris added: “My passion is the local economy and jobs. If elected I would ensure closer links with businesses, to improve the local economy”.
Karen Barford who works locally for a large cancer support charity, said: “I have four grown–up children and a grandchild who are building their lives locally. I want to be part of the team that makes sure that Brighton & Hove is not only a great place to live now but one that will provide sustainability for generations to come”.
