Cllr David Leaf

I am an experienced Bexley Councillor who has lived in the Borough all my life. Having been to school in the Borough and previously worked in a local small business I am extremely passionate about supporting high quality education for all and making Bexley an even better place for businesses to invest, grow and thrive.
