Margaret Penelope Notley

I have lived in Stevenage since 1956 and have grown up in the town, attending Longmeadow Infant and Junior Schools and Barnwell when it was a Secondary Modern School. I married in 1975, had two children, a girl and a boy, who attended local Schools and then when onto Universities. I have previously been a Stevenage Borough Councillor for a total of 28 years, serving on many committees, which has given me a wealth of knowledge and experience within Local Government, which I can take forward at County level. During my time as a Borough Councillor I also had the honour of being The Mayor twice-2018-2019 and 2022-2023. Carrying out many Civic duties and engaging with the many wonderful organisations throughout our town. I have also for many years been a member of some of these organisations, The Stevenage, Ingelheim, Autun Twinning Association. The Stevenage Kadoma Link and a local Community Association. I have recently become a member of a Primary Care Patient Participation Group and a Trustee of the Stevenage District Scouts. I have in the past been a School Governor, serving for over forty years. I enjoy spending my free time with family and friends and supporting the Performing Arts.
