John Dempster
John was born and raised in Beckenham and has lived in the area for most of his life. He attended a local comprehensive in the area and so is aware of the importance of education to providing a good platform for future success.
He works for a housing association as an employment adviser supporting adults to improve their job search techniques as well as enabling them to access job opportunities. As councillor he will seek to create improvements in local education, transport and care services in opposition to a Tory council that for years has cut and underinvested in local services.
