I have lived in Upper Poppleton since 1986 and became a Parish Councillor in 2007 and was co-opted to the Council again in 2020. The village is a special place for individuals and families to live and I want to help preserve its rural character, without restricting needed development. I think it is important that we keep the village distinguished from the suburban spread of the City of York.
I have been a school governor, Civic Society member and director of a residents’ association and served as a director on several companies’ boards and committees.
