LANCASTER NORTH WARD
Fakenham
Our determination, experience
and skills will help ensure Fakenham
gets a fair deal from North Norfolk
District Council.
An introduction to Janet
I came to Fakenham some 40 years ago from three
years in America. I have a professional background in
management accounts mainly in the private sector
but also as a Treasury Civil Servant in British
Embassy, Washington DC.
Campaigning as a young parent, for traffic lights at
Queens Rd junction, I’ve been active in the
community ever since and served as a school
governor for 15 years.
Elected as a Town Councillor 16years ago I’ve served
five years as Mayor or Deputy Mayor.
Working with schools and youth groups, as Chair of
the Recreation Ground Charity I’ve raised funds for
development on Millennium Park.
I’m a founder member of Fakenham Area Partnership,
setting up community projects including Christmas Lights, Fakenham in Bloom,
Tourist Information Point, Community Car Scheme, a Community Bank and the
Farmers’ Market.
Following an earlier campaign, with the Swimming Pool Action group we’ve
continued intensive lobbying leading to NNDC reassessing Facilities planning.
As chair of Fakenham Community Campus Trust I’ve been involved in the
refurbishment and revival of Fakenham Community Centre recently winning
funds to replace the main hall floor.
“As a local activist, I’m outspoken and pro-active on various fronts to
protect vital public services - Act on Ambulances campaign –
Petition against break-up of NHS services and also for better
Community Facilities in Fakenham.”
Introducing Adrian
I’m a born and bred Fakenham boy but, like many
young people in the 1980s I had to leave the town
to find work and a career. For me it was the Royal
Navy, which I served in for 12 years.
I’m married with 3 sons and currently my wife and
I are Kinship Carers for our 2 nieces. I’m an active
member of the Salvation Army and its Pastoral Care
Council.
I‘m a pro-active trustee of Fakenham Community
Campus (Community Centre management body) and
EP Youth, a Christian Youth outreach project.
I am also a volunteer for EP Youth on ‘Street Life’,
a drop in support project and a Young Adult Carer
group.
As chair of Kick Start Fakenham I lead the
organisation of town events including the Fakenham Fair and Christmas lights
switch on.
As a Town Councillor and community group leader I’m pro-active on The Park
Life project set up to build a skate park on the Millennium Park.
I’ve had the honour of serving as Mayor of Fakenham leading the successful
fight to save CCTV services for Fakenham when NNDC chose to scrap the
vital service across the district.
“As Manager of The Salvation Army Care and Share Shop in
Fakenham I’m available to the community on a daily basis, directly in
touch with town issues and people’s concerns.”
A fair deal for Fakenham
Fakenham is a working town so make sure it works for
you. Adrian and Janet have shown their determination
to shout louder for Fakenham.
They will oppose unfair cuts and will work with the
Labour team for the best deal for Fakenham people.
