Baildon Town Council

Chair of Council

Elected 2019 EAST WARD

I have lived in Baildon since 1986, and enjoy the semi-rural location on the edge of the moors, but also the proximity to Leeds and Bradford, all accessible from our local railway station! Having raised three sons here, who all attended local primary and secondary schools, I have been involved in many aspects of community life over the years, including 10 years as a school governor of Tong Park First and Ladderbanks Middle schools.

I have had a long career mainly in local government (Bradford and Craven) and am enjoying using my experience to local benefit. I look forward to working with others to help Baildon to go from strength to strength!

I am the Chair of the Governance Committee and member of the Economy, Environment and Planning Committees.
