Rory Westaway

Rory James Westaway (born 30th October 2000, age 19) is an original character in the Lit forum serial drama The Avenue, portrayed by Adam Benwell. He is the son of Charlie Westaway and Leyla Westaway, and the older brother of Jess Westaway. He lives at The Red Lion with his family. Offscreen he has a much-older half-sister, thirtysomething Carla Westaway, as well as maternal grandparents Maggie Baker and Phil Baker. Rory is one of the few original characters in this version of The Avenue who did not appear in the first version. He studies Sports Science at the University of Lewisham Thames (ULT), and works part-time at Nosh as a waiter with Maria Nowak.

Rory is described as 'athletic' and 'a bit of a lad', but can be a handful when he has a bee in his bonnet about something!
