Cllr Denzil Coulson - Borough Councillor for Goldsworth West

Denzil Coulson Denzil has lived in Woking for a number of years with his wife, Amanda, and 8-year old son, Joshua. Joshua goes to Beaufort School locally. Denzil is a primary school teacher in Woking.

He has served as local councillor in Goldsworth West for the last 5 years. For the last two years, served as the Shadow Spokesman for Housing campaigning on issues such as fighting excessive heating charges and fighting anti-social behaviour. He has also served on the council's economic regeneration task group actively working with officers to support local businesses and encourage job provision.

Denzil has worked actively trying to improve our community such as reporting litter, vandalism damage, clearing of vegetation to Council officers and helping council tenants with housing issues. He has a passion for helping people who need it. He serves as a trade union representative and has fought on behalf of members regarding their future pension benefits.

As a teacher, He has also tried to instil civic responsibility and citizenship in his pupils. He ran the School Council and the pupils have learnt how to work for their school community in order to make the school a better place.

Denzil's vision for Woking has always been to make it a cleaner, greener and safer place to live and work in. "I want to make the Woking Borough Council a more democratic body of regular consultation. I will be campaigning for neighbourhood forums to be set up across Woking again after the Tories dismantled this Lib Dem initiative two years ago. These forums should have a budget and meet at least once every two months in the communities such as Goldsworth Park. It will be a great opportunity for councillors to consult regularly with residents so that the council is never allowed to spend on projects we don't need again." said Denzil

In His spare time, he enjoys cricket and football - watching it mostly! He also enjoys reading, watching films, the theatre and cycling.
