Positions and responsibilities: Communications, Public Rights of Way

About me: I live in Westleigh with my husband Stuart (Cllr McDonald) and my dog Chloe. I want to make a positive contribution to our community. I organise the pop-up pub nights in Burlescombe Hall, an enjoyable hobby that brings people together.

I’ve worked in communication for around 20 years and want to close the gap between the Council and the community. This means making sure people know what we’re doing to represent them, and how they can get involved, share their ideas and raise the things that matter most to them.

I’m a member of the local running club and a keen walker – I appreciate our public rights of way and rural environment and want to protect them for everyone to enjoy.
