About Taylor
I'm a passionate and committed community activist in Horley, focused on making the town I love a better place to live and work.
I'm a keen runner and a lover of coffee and football. I was diagnosed with autism at the age of three and was educated at a special needs school, but I see my autism as a superpower. It gives me a fresh perspective that others may not see.
Before I moved to Horley, I was the Tandridge District Councillor for Westway in Caterham-on-the-Hill, elected at 20 years old.
My achievements include successfully ensuring care leavers in Tandridge were exempt from paying Council Tax until they turn 25, ensuring everyone regardless of physical ability is able to access playgrounds, and delivering positive change in Westway which is still being felt today.
Randomly asked questions
If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?
I'm a massive nerd so I'd quite like to have technopathy, which is the ability to control computers with your mind. I work a lot with computers and being able to control them with my mind would be awesome and make my life a lot easier.
Which football team do you support?
Chelsea. They have given me some very happy memories over the years with Premier League titles and that Drogba penalty in Munich. Saying that, I have soft spots for Crawley Town, Horley Town and Portsmouth.
Starter Pokemon?
Obviously Squirtle because it evolves into Blastoise. And Blastoise is awesome!
What's one thing you can't live without?
Coffee. And if it's instant, the milk always goes in second. I believe this very strongly.
Hogwarts House?
Gryffindor. Did the Sorting Hat and everything.
