I have lived in Holmes Chapel since 1992. Like many other residents, I moved here to take up a new job. I spent the whole of my career in Human Resources, although it was Personnel when I started out. I’m now retired.

I have already been involved in some of the work of the Parish Council, initially as a volunteer member of the Steering Group which was set up to develop the Holmes Chapel Neighbourhood Plan. When the Plan was completed, I continued as a volunteer on two of the Council’s task groups - Strategic Planning and Traffic & Transport.

I’m now looking forward to my role as a member of the full Council, helping to fulfil the Council’s vision to make Holmes Chapel a vibrant and prosperous hub of the local rural community, offering an attractive place to live, work and play for people of all ages.
