The Parish council

I moved to Fiskerton in October 2022. I am now retired but worked in the public sector as the finance director for a district council and then as the treasurer for a police and crime commissioner.  I was a parish councillor for 3 years in Derbyshire until moving here. So I have a lot of public sector experience.  

I want to serve the residents of Fiskerton cum Morton so this small part of Nottinghamshire continues to be a wonderful place to live, work and visit. 

I am a ‘doer’ and I like to give back to the community where I live. I am a Friend of the Green and act as its treasurer. I am also a member of Morton Fiskerton & Rolleston WI and currently serve as a committee member and its treasurer.  

Website & Newsletter Lead Flood Warden    

I arrived in the village in June 2021 with my husband Brian and wanted to get involved in village life. I soon found myself enrolled in the WI, Jubilee committee and running the flood group (how did that happen). I am an enthusiastic person who thrives when busy and I hope my project management experience will be of benefit to the village.

I also have created our website which I hope you all find useful.

I am a very artistic and creative person with a passion for interior design.

Sports & Gala Representative

I have been living in Morton with my husband Henry and my 3 teenage sons, for about 12 years. You will often see me walking the footpaths of Fiskerton and Morton with our Labrador, putting up posters for various events or enjoying a glass of wine and catch up at The Full Moon. I thoroughly enjoy volunteering on The Parish Council as we have a superb team alongside very active and enthusiastic residents. One of my aims is to improve communication within the villages and create a sense of belonging and pride in Fiskerton and Morton. I always appreciate people who offer to help and look after their surroundings and who are willing and able to ‘get stuck in’. I think we all appreciate how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful and friendly part of Nottinghamshire. 

Planning, Environment & Wellbeing

Flood Warden

I live on Main Street, Fiskerton. I was part of the Neighbourhood Plan steering group a few years ago and the fund raising for the Fiskerton defibrillator. I enjoyed being involved and part of both these community efforts which then led to my interest in becoming a Parish Councillor in 2019. I regularly walk, run, wild swim and cycle in our local area so I’m very interested in the care and maintenance of our Parish and the surrounding environment. 

Planning & Footpaths

I have lived in Morton for over twenty years and before I retired in 2019, I spent 15 years providing advice and training for parish councils across the county. I joined the parish council in 2016 and am keen to continue providing better facilities for our residents and increase community engagement.

I returned to live in Morton in 2023, having lived in the village previously for a number of years. I care very much about the villages and our sense of community, and look forward to helping maintain the uniqueness of our beautiful area. I own a nationally operating business based in nearby Southwell and run a leadership development programme for Chief Executives. My experience ranges from working in government bodies to the private sector.
