Meet Vinay Manro

A short bio on who I am and why I am standing to support Priory Vale

I’ve lived in Priory Vale since 2008 and started helping our community long before I was elected. I worked with BT to bring full fibre broadband to the area after lobbying our MP and the council. I’ve served as a parish councillor since 2018 and was your Borough Councillor from 2019 to 2023. I now chair Haydon Wick Parish Council, where I’ve helped deliver cleaner open spaces, improved play areas and reliable local services for Priory Vale residents.

Most recently, I led efforts to ensure Thames Water resolved the repeated burst mains around The Tawny Owl. I continue to focus on the issues that matter most—ensuring grass and hedge cutting continues to improve, that road repairs are not overlooked, and that residents’ concerns are acted on quickly.

Outside of council work, I’m a process and delivery-focused IT consultant. I bring that same practical approach to getting things done locally. I’m also a father who has raised my children here and cares deeply about this community.

Priory Vale deserves a strong voice. Someone who is visible, involved and genuinely committed. Not just at election time, but every day of the year. That’s what I’ve done, and will keep doing.
