In 2024, Steve Darling became the Liberal Democrat MP for Torbay, following 30 years in local politics as a councillor, then council leader. He discusses his hopes and goals for Torbay and the wider region, with regards to business, hospitality, tourism, education and much more. He also talks about the challenges he faces with the genetic eye condition – Stargardt’s – how his guide dog, Jennie, is more popular than him and his love of kayaking and swimming in Torbay’s waters.
