Meet your Parish Councillors.
Your Parish Councillors are always working hard to ensure that Barkston Ash is a safe and desirable place to live.
On this page you can find out a little bit more about each of them, what makes them tick and what areas of village life they are involved with.

With many years of business management experience she now works as a Partner in a Financial Services Company. She is an active member of the Village Hall committee, where she manages bookings for the hall and has also been involved with the Barkston Ash Scarecrow Festival. Much of her spare time revolves around family activities, socialising with friends and she counts completing the Yorkshire 3 peak challenge as one of her greatest achievements!

In his spare time he likes to play Racketball and Cricket, as well as being an avid Rugby fan. Guy is also a keen advocate and coordinator for the 20's Plenty campaign within the village. Liane Williams is a physiotherapist practicing locally. When not at work she rides her horse, gardens and plays Racketball. John is a retired civil servant having worked for the Department of Health in Leeds and before that the Natural History Museum in London. His favourite pastime is cycling and following Port Vale football club. John wrote the Village Plan based on what residents said in answer to a questionnaire.
