Woodlands Park Parish Councillors

Michael was born in Bedford and has lived, schooled and worked here ever since. He has always been involved and active in community issues and causes and that continued when he moved to Woodlands Park in 2010, where he was a founding member of the Woodlands Park Residents Association. It’s his belief that parish councils should be free of party politics, and so serves as an independent councillor, having won a February 2018 by-election.

He is a single parent who has an interest in special needs education, electric cars, environmental issues and animal welfare.

I am a mother of two boys and I have lived in Bedford for the last 26 years. I love Bedfordshire and I think it is a really nice place to bring up our kids.

I am involved in an organisation called Our Minds Matter where we sign post people towards First Aid mental health training. I particularly like this topic as I like to help people who suffer from mental health.

I’ve worked for Bedford Hospital for 19 years and I am now working at MSK on Kimbolton Road. I won the Care And Compassion award in 2017 from Bedford Hospital as well as the High Sheriff Award in 2018 for my work in the community.
