Richard Dixon-Warren is standing for re-election as Conservative candidate for Aveland Ward.
Richard lives in Haconby and was elected in a by-election in 2022. Since then, he has been working out how best to represent Aveland residents, communities and businesses – a steep learning curve.
Richard has assisted residents on issues including housing, planning and anti-social behaviour. He has attended Council and Committee meetings and spoken up for residents’ interests. He has attended Ward Parish Council meetings, church services and village events to understand residents’ interests and concerns. He has engaged with County Councillor Martin Hill and Gareth Davies MP.
A member of Lincolnshire Police’s Independent Advisory Group, Richard attends quarterly neighbourhood policing priority setting meetings. He liaises with local police and SKDC’s neighbourhoods team over village issues.
A British Army Veteran, Richard was appointed SKDC’s Armed Forces Champion in September 2022. He is working to advocate effectively for the Armed Forces Covenant and our Armed Forces community.
On election in 2022, Richard pledged to be the best representative he could be of people, communities and businesses in Aveland Ward. He said today, “I have made a start. I can do more if Aveland electors put their trust in me again.”
