Local people worked with South Wiltshire Walks Group to install this kissing gate in Winterslow. Jane Tier (Clerk) My name is Jane Tier and I am the Parish Clerk for Winterslow Parish Council. I have been Clerk to Winterslow for 10 years and it is a very interesting and varied job! When I first started it was a very different role to today whereby there was much more involvement by Wiltshire Council in local Parish issues. You could request that gullies were cleared or a pothole repaired and Wiltshire Council attended to it swiftly. The Localism Act changed the way in which we work and brought more responsibilities to the Parishes with the devolution of services. My tasks are varied and include: Preparing the Agendas and minutes Preparation of Accounts and Bank Reconciliations Respond to Planning Applications To act as a conduit for information between Wiltshire Council and the Parish Council Reporting Highway and Rights of Way issues Preparation of Annual Budget Preparation of Annual Accounts Freedom of Information requests Purchasing Supplies / Goods / Services These are main tasks that have to be carried and the most important task of any Clerk is to ensure that the Parish Council are working within the realms of the Law. I am a member of the Society of Local Council Clerks and the National Association of Local Clerks and the Parish Council is a member of the Wiltshire Association of Local Councils; all of these provide essential information on Law and Governance for the Parish Council. I have obtained my Certificate in Local Council Administration and continue to learn through courses, training and seminars, you can never have too much knowledge! Joe Elder OBE I have lived in Winterslow since 1987, and I am married to Karen. Our five children grew up in the village and attend the village school. Three of my grandchildren have attended the school and our youngest grandson is due to start next year. I have had a varied career in the Royal Navy and the police, serving around the UK and on international secondments. My last role being as a Monitoring Officer in eastern Ukraine. It is a privilege to serve as a Parish Councillor and I look forward to playing a role in supporting fellow councillors and serving the community. Winterslow is a great place to live and it has been a great place to raise my family. My desire is to maintain and improve the village for current and future generations. There is much work to be done and as a newly co-opted councillor I hope to be involved in helping to manage Barry’s Field, trees, play grounds and liaison with the school and Neighbourhood Police Team. Annabel Harding My husband and I moved to Winterslow in early 2024, drawn to the village's feel and way of life. Working life for me involves supporting the design and delivery of river and natural environment restoration projects. When not occupied with helping on council matters or our house refurbishment works, you may find me out and exploring the local paths - in any weather! I'm looking forward to helping with the sustainability and resilience of the parish, from our facilities to our green spaces.

Richard Sheppard I was born in Winterslow and I have lived on Weston Lane all of my life. I spent all of my school years at Winterslow school, becoming Head Boy, and was one of the last pupils to attend until the age of 16. On leaving I went straight to work on the family arable farm where I worked for 40 years. I am married to Patricia and we have two children, Justin and Elizabeth. My interests are music; singing with my group "The Pathfinders", sport; supporting "the Saints", and the Church; attending the Baptist Church on Weston Lane. I have served on the Parish Council for over 30 years, having also been Chairman. Currently I am a member of the: • Recreation Ground group • Emergency Snow Planning group • And working on the SIDS Project For over 70 years, I have enjoyed being involved with many village organisations always with the best of interests of the village at heart. In the past my family made the ground available for the council houses at Highfield Crescent In 1990 we gave land to the village for the new Village Hall, Carpark and Tennis Court, and also made land available for the Doctors Surgery. We are proud that we have been able to assist in providing these facilities, in a manner in which we hope to continue. Parish News What is happening in the area?
