Chris Flecknoe. Appointed May 2011

I first moved to Baildon in 1982.

I have been employed for many years in community development work with local authorities and voluntary organisations. Until 2010, I was privileged to be Bradford Council's Area Co-ordinator for the Shipley Constituency, which includes Baildon. This work enabled me to gain a wide experience of the work of local government at both District and Parish level.  I chaired Neighbourhood Forums across the Constituency, including many in Baildon. I was also able to assist with the new Baildon Parish Plan. I am an active member of Baildon Methodist Church, a school governor, a member of the Management Committee for the HALE healthy living project. Becoming a Parish Councillor provides a new challenge for me and I hope to be able to contribute to developing and supporting initiatives which will bring improvements to the local quality of life.
