She serves on the cabinet with responsibility for Children and Families including schools and children in care.
She came to Great Holm in 1992, with her husband Paul and their young family. Their children attended local play groups and schools. In 2017 Zoe retired from the NHS where she was a Consultant Psychologist working with teams and families in the Midlands helping teenagers remain safely at home, in school and out of care or custody. She lives in Great Holm with her husband who is Chair of the Consortium Milton Keynes and a school governor.
In 2013, Zoe was elected to the Loughton and Great Holm Parish Council, and is now its Vice Chair. A year later she became a Milton Keynes Borough Councillor.
Zoe was drawn into local politics when defending our open spaces. She successfully opposed building plans on the edge of Lodge Lake and provided evidence and spoke out for the establishment of a permanent village green in Great Holm. Like many residents she enjoys the lake, walking or running with her dog around it most days. She continues to work to enhance our enjoyment of this lovely area.
She is keen to engage residents in the politics of local issues so their views are always taken into account. She led the campaign to stop the closure of Great Holm fire station.
Zoe is excited to be your Councillor in the area she lives and loves, welcoming contact and feedback about your concerns and where you want to see the Parish and Milton Keynes Council put in more effort.
"As your Councillor for Loughton and Shenley ward, I can help you with any of your local concerns- from parking permits to planning permission battles – please let me know."
