Burton Latimer Town Council

I have lived in the borough for almost 40 years, and raised my family here. I was first elected to Kettering Borough Council in 1994, and was deputy leader of the Labour group, and lead spokesperson for housing and the voluntary sector, for many years.

Now retired, but for many years I was the CEO for Kettering Centre for the Unemployed running education courses and providing support to those with little or no basic qualifications.

Following the death of my husband I moved to Burton Latimer 7 years ago, and felt that the time was now right for me to support and get involved in the future of the town.

During 2020 I started walking around the town more, as my permitted exercise and discovered many beautiful areas that I had been unaware of. As a result of which I became a WOMBLE, and am now a bit obsessive about litter.

I am looking forward to serving Burton Town Council, and keen to make sure it provides a voice for the people of the town within the structures of the new Northamptonshire Unitary authority
