About me

I have been (and remain) a resident in the Marsh Lane community of many years standing. I was first elected on to the council in July 2008 and re-elected in June 2009.

I am currently shadow Cabinet Member for Technology and Recycling and a member of the Finance, Management and Regeneration Improvement and Scrutiny Committee.

My local duties include my service as a Ridgeway Education Trust member and Chair of the Three Valleys Countryside Management project.

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. For details of how to do this please read our openness at meetings page.
