My roles on Kendal Town Council
I have been a member of Kendal Town Council since May 2018 and currently serve as Chair of the Environment Committee. I am passionate about climate action, biodiversity, and active travel, and I am also a member of the Management Committee and Bloom Committee. I am working on initiatives to make Kendal cleaner, safer, and friendlier. I was involved in setting up the Citizens' Jury on Climate Change and continue to work on implementing its recommendations. I also frequently represent the Town Council at events, advocating for a greener, more sustainable Kendal.
This is a voluntary role.
