Before being elected as Woking’s MP, Will served as Deputy Leader of Woking Borough Council and a Borough Councillor for Hoe Valley, and also the Lib Dem Group Leader on Surrey County Council and the County Councillor for Woking South.
Will grew up in Goldsworth Park and Horsell, where he attended local schools including Horsell Church of England Middle School, Woking High School and Woking College. Will lived in Westfield for many years and he now lives by Woking Park with his sausage dog Toffee.
Will was first elected to serve his local community as a Councillor in 2009. He is now in his fifth term as a County Councillor and fourth term as a Borough Councillor. Will was comfortably re-elected in the 2024 local elections and has the largest majority in Woking, a testament to his hard work for local residents.
