Drawn to Belton in 2010 for its outstanding beauty and location, my partner and I subsequently built our home and business here making us very familiar with the local planning process and concerns of villagers. A qualified ACA and CTA by profession, I have built a successful finance career over the past 30 years where my last position was corporate FD to a global multinational engineering group. I now enjoy a slightly slower pace of life and more time in the village, running the business and enjoy being able to share a little of the Belton magic with visitors. Having laid such strong roots here and with more time to help, I'm keen to support the village in any way I can. Offering my services as a PC is my small way of doing this. Passionate about nature and animal welfare I can often be seen walking our horses and dogs.
