Cllr Steffi Sutters
Steffi Sutters has represented West Putney as a councillor since 2010. In 2014 when Wandsworth Conservatives ran the Council she joined the senior leadership team and held the position of Cabinet Member for Community Services and Open Spaces.
Steffi is passionate about refuse collection, parks and commons, libraries, sport, the arts and heritage. Collectively these contribute so much to our way of life here in Wandsworth.
