Biography

I have lived in Haddenham for over 25 years and served on the Parish Council since 2001, becoming Chair in 2017. After qualifying as a town planner, I have had a 40 year career in town planning, housing and community development, working in the local government, housing association and voluntary sectors. For many years I chaired an innovative Oxford charity supporting youth and older people’s projects at Blackbird Leys, and served as a governor of an Oxford primary school. I am a trustee of the Haddenham Youth & Community Centre, and of the Village Hall. In 2013 I was awarded the MBE for service to the community.

Parish Councillor since February 2002
