The Conservative MP for the Wrekin - Mark Pritchard


Mark Pritchard grew up in neighbouring Herefordshire and now lives and works in the The Wrekin Parliamentary Constituency. He is married to Sondra and is often seen walking on The Wrekin with his two miniature schnauzers: Pebbles and Dillon. He runs a marketing communications company.

Mark has been very active over the last three years, calling the first public meeting in Wellington campaigning against Labour's car parking charges and personally collecting a 2,000 name petition in Newport. He has also been busy with his Save Our Services campaign, which is campaigning for improved funding for the Princess Royal Hospital and trying to stop more services being transferred to Shrewsbury. He has been outspoken on Labour-led Telford & Wrekin Council and Shropshire County Council's huge council tax hikes, which have hit young families, professionals and the elderly. He has also consistently called for more police to patrol the streets of The Wrekin, which have witnessed a sharp rise of 15% in violent crime since Labour came to power.
