Councillor Turtle, one of three Councillors serving Kinson North, has been a Bournemouth Councillor since May 2015. Councillor Turtle commented “It’s been a privilege serving Bournemouth Council and the residents of Kinson North but I’ve taken the personal decision to live abroad; I’m confident however that I leave Kinson North in the good hands of my fellow ward Councillors Angiolini and Battistini, and I’m sure they and my eventual replacement, will continue to serve the people of Kinson North to the best of their ability.”
