AN INDEPENDENT RECORD OF EVERY PROMISE MADE IN THE STATES OF JERSEY
Visit the Guernsey edition →The manifesto sets out a parish-focused programme centred on sheltered housing at Maisons Cabot, improvements to the Youth Centre and Parish Hall, a permanent road crossing at Trinity School, and support for the Honorary Police and local communities. The most specific commitment is the development of two additional sheltered homes on recently acquired land. The candidate also expresses a wish to continue contributing to health matters, while stating that the parish role would take priority. Most pledges are directional, naming areas of concern without timescales, figures or named mechanisms.
Read the manifestoSelect one to jump to the reasoning behind its score.
The manifesto is focused on parish-level concerns: sheltered housing, road safety, youth facilities, the Parish Hall, and the Honorary Police. The scope is deliberately local, with no cross-portfolio reform agenda and only a brief indication that the candidate would wish to continue in health matters. The connecting vision is the maintenance and modest growth of Trinity's community life rather than a structural transformation.
Most pledges are directional, naming an area of intent without a figure, date or named mechanism. The clearest specific commitment is the development of two additional sheltered homes at Maisons Cabot on recently acquired land, and the reference to 'agreed improvements' to the Parish Hall implies a process already under way. The remaining pledges, covering elderly care, youth engagement, road safety, and support for local communities, carry no timescales or criteria for success.
The parish-level pledges are grounded in existing structures: the Maisons Cabot land has been acquired, the Parish Hall improvements are described as 'agreed,' and the school crossing is framed as a collaborative matter. The manifesto acknowledges that the parish role would take priority over any continuation in health work, conditioning that aspiration accordingly. No new revenue sources are named for keeping the parish rate low while sustaining services, which leaves that pledge without a stated mechanism.
The Scorecard records a post as Assistant Minister for Health and Social Services from July 2026. The parish-level pledges, covering the Youth Centre, Parish Hall, Maisons Cabot, the school crossing, the Rector appointment, and the Honorary Police, sit within the Connétable role and are largely within the parish's own sphere of action, though the road crossing depends on collaboration with other bodies. The aspiration to continue in health work depends on appointment decisions made by others. Any States Assembly pledges depend on an Assembly majority and a willing Council of Ministers.
A substantial portion of the text consists of statements of personal values and community sentiment, including commitments to be 'kind,' to have an 'open door policy,' and a closing quotation about Trinity being 'the best Parish to live in.' These passages occupy space without adding specificity. The sections dealing with concrete parish matters, such as Maisons Cabot and the Parish Hall, are more direct, but they are outnumbered by the general statements of intent.
