Responsibilities: Simon is the Parish Path Warden and is a member of the Planning Committee, Staffing Committee and Traffic/VADs working party. I was born and raised in the village where I attended the Primary School before moving on to Kingscliffe and then onto Oundle Prince William Secondary School.After finishing 6th form I went to work at a local large scale farm.I then went on to do 3 years at an agricultural college. After finishing that I went back to work on the farm before spending over 10 years working on farms all over the world and finally coming back to the UK in 2006 where I have been doing a variety of jobs from working back on the farm to driving a London bus.Before taking my HGV test and driving lorries on agency work before having 3 years working at Ketton cement before moving on to driving for Royal Mail as a network driver for the national hub taking the mail to all corners of the UK.I still do some farm work in my free time for a farmer in the village as well as some European truck driving for the music and F1 industry.
I'm open minded and think outside of the box with a can do attitude and have lots of local knowledge and contacts.I have many interests including travel, motor sports, machinery new and old and how things work.I was a member of the Horticultural Society committee for about 10 years mainly dealing with the marquee and the show, schedule and the scoring system as well as the printing.
I'm looking forward to working with the Parish Council and pushing forward the plan of the village.
