Swepstone Parish Council covers the villages of Swepstone and Newton Burgoland. There are 5 members who are re-elected every 4 years. Parish Council elections took place in 2023 whereupon the current councillors were voted in.
Cllr Andrew Milner
Andrew has lived in Newton Burgoland for 24 years. Married to Lesley, Andrew is one of the Parish Council’s representatives on the Trustees of Wragg’s Yard Committee.
Cllr Joanne Coleman
After 20 years of living abroad, the draw of her family and her roots brought Jo back close to her family home, 5 years ago she bought a house in Newton Burgoland.
When Jo isn’t covered in mud from the allotment, or grease from cars she is likely to be baking up a storm in the kitchen.
Jo would never say no to helping out wherever and whenever she can. Jo enjoys family time with her four grandchildren and her crazy dogs.
Jo believes in continuing to develop her skills and is a Community First Responder.
Village life is something she cherishes.
