Pedersöre

"A team player who wants to work for the good of the municipality. Accustomed to taking responsibility and not afraid of demanding decisions"

I live in Lövö and I am a married father of 4 children aged 7-16 and a committed member of both political and non-profit organisations with Christian values. I am very interested in sports and a frequent user of exercise facilities in the local area. Culture is also close to my heart and I like to go to the theatre when given the opportunity and I relax by reading a good book. I am running for the 4th time in the municipal elections and would like to continue to be involved and influence the decisions made in our municipality.

Important political topics

Children, Youth, and Families

Enabling a good start and a pleasant and safe life for everyone is important to me and something I want to work for to make possible in our municipality.

Economy & Business

I want Pedersöre to be a viable municipality where it is attractive for companies to establish their production and take responsibility for society. This means that we will have people moving into our municipality and strong growth.
