Ghika Savva

Town Council Candidate, Bradford on Avon North

Ghika Savva first moved to Bradford in 1996 and has lived, worked and raised her children here. She says: “I grew up in the north and was used to a very friendly environment and Bradford, for me, felt like home very quickly because of its very friendly welcoming community.”

Ghika loves the river and access to nature and has walked the outer circle of the Bradford on Avon Walking Wheel in both directions and wants to complete all the spokes this summer. She has worked in the education and charity sectors, currently employed in improving relations between students in Bath and local residents. As a parent, she was involved with the parent association at Christ Church School, writing a successful funding bid to a local trust, for interactive white boards.

Ghika says: “If elected, I would bring my interest in community and skills in working on successful and positive projects, as well as my experience of public relations and fundraising. I’m also interested in protecting our green spaces, improving our roads for pedestrians and in getting involved in the project for a new pedestrian bridge.”
