Conservative Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for North Norfolk, Ann Steward, will launch her campaign at Sheringham today.
The Tory hopeful said: 'Over the past few months I have spent considerable time listening to the people who live and work in North Norfolk.
'The recent tidal surge and flooding in the constituency have been devastating for so many communities and many families have not yet felt the benefits our country's economic recovery.
'With a background in tourism and agriculture, and my experience in running a family business, I have been able to relate to many of the concerns raised by people throughout the constituency.'
Mrs Steward has lived in Norfolk for most of her life, is married to Andrew, a farmer. She managed businesses in the tourism sector for nearly 25 years and served as a district and county Councillor for 12 years.
