Ian Walker, Conservatives, loves the Outdoor City of Sheffield
I was born and bred in Sheffield and my wife and I brought up our four children here. We love the outdoor life that this region offers and I can often be seen out on my mountain bike – struggling up our many hills.”
Rob Murphy, Green Party, is a football dad
“Many years ago I used to play, but over the last 10 I've been watching my son play all over South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire. The worst was at the top of Graves Park in Sheffield when the wind was blowing so hard that as you tipped the cup, the coffee blew out of it before it reached your lips. The parents were huddled together on the touchline like 'March of the Penguins' and the referee blew the final whistle early so we could all go home.”
