Andy Jehan
Candidate for Connétable in St. John
It has been a little over a year since I was sworn in as Connétable of St John.
The last thirteen months have been a fantastic experience, meeting parishioners, hosting Parish events and working with all members of our municipality to deliver for St John. I have learnt many new things in my short time as Connétable, building on my commercial background and my former roles within our Honorary Police and Parish administration.
I am pleased to be able to stand for re-election as Connétable. I believe that with the experience I have gained I am able to offer our Parish the stability and direction that it deserves.
