Profile: I have always lived in Matlock and have been a member of Derbyshire Dales District Council since 1987. I was also a founder member of Matlock Town Council, on which I still serve. I have served three terms in total as Town Mayor, and I am currently the (Civic) Vice-Chairman of the District of Derbyshire Dales.  I am involved in many organisations in the town. I have the honour to be President of the Matlock and Darley Dale Branch of the Royal British Legion. I am a member of the 140 Air Training Corps Civilian committee and a Govenor of All Saints Infants School and Matlock Civic Association. I have served on these for over twenty years.
