Profile

I represent the Trefonen with Treflach Ward of the parish and I have lived in the parish for 43 years.

I became a councillor because I have been fortunate in acquiring skills during a long career, which I think could be useful in attempting to help the local community. I enjoy living in my village of Trefonen and through a combination of good luck and hard work I have a good lifestyle. I want to help others, particulary those who are less fortunate, to experience the same.

Parish Councils have been described as “sleeping giants” of communities and I believe this to be the case. They have massive opportunities to improve lives and the environment and it is my ambition to contribute to these aspirations.

I am, and have been, active in the local community and have had various positions with many different organisations. These include The Rotary Club of Oswestry; Oswestry Rugby Club; Offa Community Support, and recently the P3 Environmental Group.
