Blue bins discussion


At the parish council meeting there was general approval for the newdistrict supplied blue bins, and some discussion about what happens to the green bin, and if a group of people could if they wished club together to keep fewer bins rather than having the full three-bin set. Also discussion about the amount of paper in the new caddies.

It is making a difference though, in terms of what can be recycled, and is such a change from when everyone just put black bin liners out (for the foxes to tear open and snack on the contents!)

About me

We have lived in or near Cambridge since coming back from Hong Kong in the 1980s. I have worked in the private sector, but mainly in public service, running legal aid for this region, advising Home Office ministers on criminal law policy, running change programmes, and more recently reviewing major projects for government departments.
I got into local politics when I joined the parish council in Whittlesford in 2006 and decided to stand as district cllr in 2008. I was elected, and re-elected in 2012. In 2013 I was elected as the County Councillor for the ten villages round Duxford. I am now leader for South Cambridgeshire District Council.
My wife works in the NHS, and my two boys are now grown up and work away, so I have the opportunity to get really involved in getting things done locally.
As well as being leader for South Cambs I am vice-chair of the Audit Committee for the County Council. I also serve on the Health & Well-Being Board for Cambridgeshire. My main sport is rowing, but I also run and cycle. If you follow me on twitter you can also see the results of my culinary activities.
