 I was a District Councillor on Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council Chair of the Licensing Regulatory Board and Vice Chair of the Public Protection Scrutiny Commission.

I act as a consultant in many food related subjects and can provide opinion on meat and meat product identification and food safety issues.

My particular interests are representations for Ex servicemen on behalf of the Brierley Branch of the Royal British Legion. We have been unable to establish an Army Cadet Force in Brierley because  have been unable to attract sufficient supervisors Can You help? 

Brierley as a village is an ancient hamlet with many historical artefacts. It is a community which is quickly developing. Much of the village is in a conservation area and therefore protected from intrusive development.

We want more decision making back down to local level and to be able to spend the money raised through taxation in our area where that money is collected.

Why do some people want to destroy the old values? They seemed to serve us well in the past. Much more than the modern socially acceptable issues seem to do now.

The Brierley Grimethorpe and Shafton communities are colliery villages in a process of economic and environmental improvements and development with a great deal of opportunity, fine countryside and visual enhancement. These are areas where it is going to be good to live, work and relocate your business. Interested contact " The Grimethorpe Regeneration Executive," at the Acorn Centre, High Street, Grimethorpe.
