Your Councillors

The Parish Council is made up of local residents who volunteer their time to represent the community and help make decisions on local matters. Councillors work together to support village projects, review planning applications, manage council assets, and ensure the parish remains a safe and pleasant place to live.

Each councillor brings their own experience and interests to the role and can be contacted through the Clerk.

Bertie Allonby Briggs

Vice Chairman

I’m 60 this August, I have lived in Lower Boddington with my wife Sarah for 5 years. I have two grown children from a previous marriage and 2 grand-children.

I have lived all my adult life in rural Northamptonshire, and spent almost 40 years as an architectural designer.

I’m passionate about good quality well designed buildings and how they work. I view my self as a problem solver through good design and love bringing a disused or badly designed building back to life.

My second passion is classic cars, I own far too many and my hobby has become a business. I now run local classic car storage and national delivery service specialising in classic cars.

I love living in The Boddingtons and wish to do what I can to help keep the wonderful community it is. I have been a member of The Friends of Boddington since inception helping Philip Freer and others get the most out of a bad situation with HS2.

There are so many lovely people living among us and I want to do my bit to keep it a fantastic place to call home.

James Copeman

I have lived in Lower Boddington for over 40 years, so have seen a lot of changes in the village over that time and I have the interests of the village very much at heart. I intend to ensure that Lower is represented on a united and constructive Parish Council, which will represent the best interests of the whole community by working with the other village organisations too.

With regard to Lower, I would like to keep up the search for a suitable piece of land for a children’s playground and do my best to ensure minimal disruption from the HS2 works.

Boddington has so much going for it and we need to take care of what we are lucky enough to have.

Jamie Walton

I moved to Boddington in 2012 from Bicester to enjoy the countryside and all that Boddington has to offer.

I'm 21 years old and my hobbies include playing sports such as rugby, cricket and padel as well as activities with Wormleighton young farmers.

One of my favourite things about the village is the community feeling and meeting all kinds of different people throughout the villages who help the village in many different ways whether it be helping in jubilee field or at the church which is something I hope to do more to help the village

Stuart Nichols

Chairman

I moved to the village 36 years ago to Highlands Farm milking cows and selling untreated milk to the local area. Being a farmer I have always being interested in the welfare of the countryside. Having the waste business now also gives me the opportunity to meet people of all walks of life.

I used to help with a small committee organising Boddington Ball donating the money to the Church, Chapel , Village Hall, Playgroup and School. I have always enjoyed being part of the village activities.

HS2 is a huge disruption to the area.. but with the grants available hopefully we can continue to improve both villages still making it an attractive place to live.

I was on the Parish Council 20 years ago always having the village interest at heart.. and will always continue to do so.. If anybody has any issues regarding the village .. you know I am very approachable.
