About me

I became a county councillor in 1981 and served on the Cabinet as member for External Affairs for six years until 2007. 

Before that I had responsibility for various local authority function - education, libraries, highways, fire and trading standards. I also use to be the Chairman of East Midlands plc.

I’m currently on the council’s Health and Adult Care Improvement and Scrutiny Committee and represent it on the Peak District National Park Authority Joint Advisory body and the Local Government Association.
