Alex Perriam to stand in September's General Election

A third candidate has announced their plans to stand in Glenfaba and Peel in September's General Election.

Alex Perriam has spent his career to date managing businesses, teaching and mentoring young people and working with local organisations by volunteering in the community.

If elected, he says his priorities will be affordable housing, healthcare, the rising cost of living and supporting local businesses and farming.

Alex says: "Like many of you, I have concerns about the issues facing our community: access to affordable housing, healthcare, the rising cost of living, supporting local businesses and farming, protecting Peel's unique character and ensuring that the west of our Island has a strong voice in Tynwald."

Also standing in Glenfaba and Peel are James Hampton and Andrew Harris.

The General Election is taking place on Thursday 24 September.
