So far on my journey to revitalise Leigh I've taken time off teaching, sought the help of my talented friends and most pressingly... spent a lot of my own money!! Websites, bus fares and time off work all add up. And when you're an independent like myself you can't call up Nigel or Keir to pay for your lunch.

The major parties have billionaire backers, unions and party infrastructure. I've just got me, myself and I.

That's why I need your help - if I'm going to give running for office a good go I'll need some money to make the changes we all want to see in our area.

The money is subjected to all the Electoral Commission regulations and will only be used for campaigning and campaigning materials.

A donation to Vote Enzo! is a vote for Leigh's small businesses and a vote to keep our waterways clean.
