Denis St. Elmo Kellman
is committed to the Parish of St. Lucy and to all
disadvantaged communities in Barbados. He is a strong
and outspoken advocate for the rights of the "little man" and
is willing to go the extra mile to see that justice is
done. He came into politics simply "to serve the
people".
Denis Kellman objects strongly to the patchy
development that has taken place in Barbados. He wants
to see a major economic development programme, which brings
opportunities and tangible benefits to all parishes and
classes of people in Barbados. He is concerned about the
state of roads in the neglected parishes of Barbados.
Above all he wants to see the issue of the escalating price of
land addressed by Government. He believes that if
current trends continue, Barbadians will be squeezed out of
the land and housing markets and reduced to being tenants in
their own country.
Denis Kellman received his education at
Coleridge and Parry School, the Community College and the
Barbados Institute of Management and Productivity.
In keeping with his philosophy of
self-reliance, Denis Kellman has spent most of his working
life running the family shop, which also doubles as a
restaurant, nightclub, sports bar and visitor's centre.
He believes in community tourism and argues that this is the
best way to democratize tourism and make this country's
primary industry more meaningful and rewarding to ordinary
citizens. He is committed to making tourism "everybody's
business".
Denis Kellman is a "people's
politician". He regularly mingles with local fisher
folk, farmers and sports persons at the North Stars Social
Club, the Moontown Domino Club and at his Visitor's
Centre. He is one of the most accessible political
leaders in Barbados.
Denis is married to Paulevette and they have
two sons, Paul and Russell. |
