Fiona writes,
'I have been working with parish councils for the last 13 years, I passed the Certificate of Local Council Administration in 2013 and am also Clerk and RFO for West Hunsbury Parish Council in Northampton. I also conduct local council audits on behalf of Northants County Association of Local Councils.
The work is varied and sometimes challenging but I enjoy working with different communities and the challenges that presents.
I live in a small village in North Northants with my family and our dogs.'
