Keir was born and raised in Cotgrave, he is married to Becky with two children, Jessica and Rhys, who attend the local school and playgroup.  Keir enjoys days out with his family, Formula 1 and rugby.

Keir believes that a lot of work has been undertaken to improve Cotgrave for the better, however, more work is required to ensure Cotgrave gets what it needs and deserves.  Keir was elected as Chairman of the Council for 2015-2016 and said “I am honoured to have been chosen to lead Cotgrave Town Council.  I look forward to the challenges ahead, working with my fellow Councillors and the community to ensure Cotgrave gets a fair deal.”
