 Borough Councillors

 

 

 Peter Morson

Pete has been your local Borough and Parish Councillor for over 30 years. He was the youngest Borough and Parish Councillor when he first decided to stand for the Dordon Ward. He was also the youngest Mayor for North Warwickshire in 1993.

 Jacky Chambers

Jacky and her family lived in Dordon for 30 years until seven years ago, when their home was demolished to make way for the Birch Coppice development. She now lives in Baxterley, with her husband Gavin Gordon who was an Accident and Emergency consultant at the George Eliot hospital.

Jacky is a medically qualified public health doctor who once she retired stood and was elected as your Labour Borough Councillor in 2015. In the past, she was also Chair of School Governors at Dordon Primary School and fought successfully with other parents to keep the school open.

Over the last 4 years, Jacky has been a strong voice for local people campaigning with the Stop the Build Action group to try and change the plan to build thousands of houses on the countryside, which surrounds the village. She knows from personal experience, what happens when green fields, woodland and bluebells disappear under concrete.
