Meet Peter Fortune.
As Sir Bob Neill is standing down from Bromley & Chislehurst, and with the boundary changes from Bromley & Chislehurst to Bromley & Biggin Hill, we would like to introduce you to Peter, who is the Parliamentary Conservative candidate for Bromley and Biggin Hill.
About Peter
He's lived in Bromley with his wife and family for nearly 20 years, serving the community as a local Councillor and as your London Assembly Member.
After working abroad, and completing some military service, Peter settled with his family in Orpington before moving to Bromley Town a few years later. Peter worked at the News Shopper, and his wife taught at local primary schools. He is a passionate about our community and everything that is on offer here. He's enjoyed countless evenings at the Churchill Theatre and followed Bromley FC to Wembley three times. He loves walking in the beautiful countryside around Biggin Hill and has trained in the cricket nets in Hayes. Peter's volunteered for local charities and supporting community ‘Friends’ groups. Bromley and Biggin Hill is a unique place with thriving businesses as beautiful green spaces. He wanted to help keep it that way. This community is like home to Peter, and he cares deeply about it. If you elect Peter as your Member of Parliament for Bromley and Biggin Hill, he will work hard to keep our area safe, green, and thriving. Peter will be our voice and will never let us down.
