Jean Wharmby

I was elected on to the county council in June 2009 and, as well as the above position, I'm a member of the Regulatory Licensing and Appeals Committee and the Finance, Management and Regeneration Improvement and Scrutiny Committee.
I also represent the council on the Peak District National Park Authority and Joint Advisory body, and I'm a former High Peak Borough Council Mayor where I'm still a councillor for Dinting.
I'm married to George, who represents the neighbouring county council division of Glossop North and Rural, in an area where we have lived and brought up our two sons for 40 years. I'm also a trained chef and together we've run a number of hotel and restaurant businesses in the Glossop area where we still have a catering interest.
I enjoy working as a volunteer with the Glossop Community Transport and support many other local organisations within the volunteer sector, including the British Legion and the St John Ambulance.
