My name is Gary Lowther, I am 61 years old, married and I have two grown up daughters.

I have lived in Crowfield for over 25 years and before that many years in Pury End near Towcester.

I have spent most of my life either as a truck mechanic, transport manager and finally a director of a truck rental firm employing 200 staff.

In year 2000 I started my own company producing clothing and more recently moved the business to Brackley where 15 staff are employed.

I feel passionate about local politics and want to make a positive difference to the local community.
