I rejoined the parish council in the May 2011 elections after a four year gap. I have lived in this area of Kent for 35 years, and am married to a local Plaxtol girl, Anna. We have three sons, a cat, a dog and occasionally a sheep or two! My profession is the music business and my career has included time as a press officer for Decca Records, EMI’s head of press and promotion and running my own Pr and marketing consultancy specialising in the music industry for 20 years. I now lecture on the music profession at further education colleges and universities. I care very much for our parish and am particularly concerned with safety on our country roads. It is a real privilege to be a parish councillor for Plaxtol.
