Portrait of Alan Levy.

Biography:I was sent to Cambridge in 1982 by the company I was working for at the time.

I'm married to Mary and we have three grown-up offspring. My interests include reading (history is a special favourite), country walking and classical music.

Tania Zmura

Portrait of Tania Zmura.

Biography:I was born in Belgium just before the war, my parents were Russian émigrés like both Nick Clegg's and Helen Mirren's fathers! Straight after the war my parents moved to the Belgian Congo close to the Northern Rhodesian border. It was an idyllic childhood. At the age of 18 I went back to Belgium, and did teacher training. At the age of 21, I came to Cambridge one summer to improve my English language and met my husband. In 1966 we went to Cape Town in South Africa, where my parents offered us some land but my husband couldn't cope with apartheid, so we came back to Cambridge and have remained ever since here. Until the age of 6 I spoke only Russian and it was always the language at home, then French and at seven Nederland as Belgian has 2 languages, at 13 English some Swahili was thrown in too. I have worked at the Cambridge University and loved it. We have 4 daughters and 3 grandchildren: a close knit family.

West Chesterton

Max Boyce

Portrait of Max Boyce.

Biography:I became involved in politics while at university here in Cambridge, by helping in both the General Elections of 1974. After graduating (1976), I did a PGCE in Leeds (popping back to Cambridge to help -- and vote -- in the parliamentary by-election that autumn) then worked for a while just outside Basildon as a teacher. Deciding that teaching wasn't for me, I landed a job at the British Antarctic Survey, leaving Essex on the same day as Jim Callaghan called the 1979 General Election. In 1980, I started Focus on West Chesterton, which led a couple of years later to the election of Mark Hayes by the enormous margin of 1 vote. I took a break from politics for family life between 1983 and 1989, returning to help Ian Nimmo-Smith get elected by the slightly more comfortable majority of 11 in 1990. I was then asked to be David Howarth's agent for the General Election (which eventually happened in 1992), and I spent the next few years organising the party's campaigning in Cambridge - with quite a lot of help, it should be said -- that culminated in our taking control of the City Council in 2000. I got elected to the City Council in 2003, after having organised 10 successive 're-elect' campaigns in West Chesterton. I was re-elected in 2004, then again in 2006, and again in 2010. I am now Chair of the Group, and about to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Focus on West Chesterton. By profession I'm a software engineer. My other interests include folk music, photography, badminton and crosswords.

Damian Tunnicliffe

Portrait of Damian Tunnicliffe.

Biography:Damien has lived in West Chesterton for the best part of 18 years and two of his children are at local schools (Milton Road and Chesterton) while his eldest boy is at Hills Road. Damien started out as a volunteer teacher in Madagascar and education in the developing world remains an abiding interest. From there he went to teach in Lisbon and after that joined international educational publishers, Longman, where he ended up in charge of markets in East Asia, especially Japan, Taiwan and Korea. After Longman, Damien went freelance and returned to education for the developing world, working on projects in Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh in Asia, and countries such as Georgia (one of his favourites), Madagascar and Ecuador. Three years ago he worked on a European Union project in Ethiopia and last year, Rwanda. With far-flung travelling days over, Damien now heads the Alliance Francaise de Cambridge, the French cultural centre on Hills Road. Being French on his mother's side makes him especially keen to encourage closer cooperation and understanding between two countries that face similar challenges and opportunities and have much to learn from each other. Damien very much wants to meet as many of you in the ward as possible and plans to call by over the coming weeks and months to introduce himself so you can put a face to a name and let him hear your concerns and views. Damien concludes: "I will do my best to help make West Chesterton an even more pleasant place to live and work. I look forward to serving as one of your councillors and thank you again for your support in electing me."
