About me

I was elected on to the council in June 2009 and as well as the position above I’m a member of the Standards Committee and represent the council on the Derbyshire Combined Fire Authority.

I’ve lived in the area for most my life and for 25 years I was in the army where I rose to the rank of warrant officer before leaving to start my own small food retail business in Derbyshire, from which I’ve now retired.

As well as being a county councillor I’m an Alfreton Town councillor and an Amber Valley Borough councillor, with a particular interest in financial matters.

On a personal level I’m an Alfreton Town Football Club season ticket holder and i am a madly keen fan of very early 20th century blues music.

I am always keen to get feedback, good or bad, on county council related matters so you can help shape what we do and how we do it, both now and in years to come. Young people can also make their voice heard through the council’s b_line (opens in a new window) site or by emailing youngpeople@derbyshire.gov.uk

You can also come along to any of Derbyshire County Council meetings which take place six times a year, usually on a Wednesday afternoon, at its headquarters in Matlock.  You can either just watch the proceedings or you can ask a question.
