Brighton and Hove City: Queen's Park ward · number 2 of 5 on the ballot paper
Labour Party
Standing for the council in Brighton and Hove City: Queen's Park ward, polling day 24 September 2026.
Behind the grand facades around Queen’s Park itself are communities facing some of the worst relative poverty in the city.
That is being felt particularly hard by pensioners and families struggling to pay their bills.
I want to be a councillor who is visible, accessible and focused on the issues that make a real difference to people’s lives.
Mr Gladwin, who retired from the NHS earlier this summer, has pledged to put tackling the cost of living, pensioner poverty, and fuel poverty at the heart of his campaign.
He has also highlighted economic regeneration and support for the wider Brighton and Hove economy as key priorities, drawing on previous experience running a small business.
Mr Gladwin lives in the area and has worked in the NHS for nearly 30 years, including as an executive director at several trusts.
He also has experience in local government and worked as a journalist in Brighton and Hove, serving as political editor for a local newspaper.
