About me

I have been a Clerk since 2011 when I started with one small parish, Caversfield to the north of Bicester, and over the years others have come and gone.  I’m currently also Clerk to Ambrosden which is a larger village to the east of Bicester.

I am a member of the Society of Local Council Clerks, Chair of the Oxfordshire Branch and a member of the SLCC Advice Team.

I passed CiLCA in January 2018 and am currently working on Level 4 Community Governance.  I am also available for Parish Council internal audits and governance reviews.
