WILSON Steve - Candidate profile

Affiliation: Future Dunedin
My principal place of residence is in the Mosgiel-Taieri Community Board area.
Born and bred on the Taieri, I’m proud to be raising my family here with my wife, Elke. Our three children attend Silverstream School, and I’m passionate about ensuring Mosgiel continues to be a great place for families to thrive.
I own Aspiring Adventures, an international travel company, and bring experience in small business and community-driven growth.
Having lived in Mosgiel, Queenstown, Germany, and Peru, I have a broad perspective alongside a deep appreciation for Mosgiel’s strengths—and its potential. I’ve served as Secretary of the Taieri Tennis Club since 2021, helping grow participation over 500%. I also volunteer with Silverstream School and the Taieri BMX Club.
I’m standing for the Mosgiel-Taieri Community Board to be a strong, practical voice for locals and to help shape a future that reflects our community’s needs and values. I support Andrew Simms for mayor and I align with Future Dunedin’s vision.
