John Steele

John, a passionate advocate for Arbroath, moved to the town in November 2021. He and his wife, Shirley, were immediately captivated by the local community and its warm, welcoming atmosphere. To contribute to the town’s betterment, John has actively participated in the Community Council and joined the local business group, Oath for Arbroath.

John’s entrepreneurial spirit has led him to venture into the hospitality industry. Together with Shirley, he operates Wester Den Holiday Home and Studio, a charming accommodation located on the outskirts of Arbroath. Dedicated to promoting the town, John ensures that the welcome packs for their guests feature only locally sourced items and has decorated the property with artwork by local artists.

John’s investment in Toll House Spirits (Redcastle Spirits) further demonstrates his commitment to Arbroath. He was drawn to the company’s shared values of supporting the local community, the football club, and other businesses.
