Welcome to my website

I was re-elected in May 2005 , as a Conservative to serve as the County Councillor for the Electoral Division of Chorley Rural East which includes the town of  Adlington and the villages of Rivington, Heath Charnock, Anderton , White Coppice, Wheelton, Anglezarke, Heapey, Withnell and Brinscall , a beautiful part of Lancashire. I also represent Heath Charnock and Rivington on the Chorley Borough Council. I am here to serve all your interests irrespective of political conviction and I hope in the last 25 years as your councillor, I have always done so.

 I have been a  member of the Conservative Party  since I left the University and became at 23 a member of Turton Urban District Council.  I have stood as a Conservative in a Parliamentary election and served in the party organisation  in the women's section and in the local government councillors association at national level . This site has a  link to the party's national web site.and you can read about our policies and personalities by clicking the link in "my politics".

 I have a special personal interest in services for people especially children with learning difficulties and take an active part  in a number of national and local organisartions established to help them which you can also access through links on this site .

My main interests in local government are in the field of education and social care and I am fortunate to be on the national  Local Government Association's Children and Young People Board.
