Councillors

Councillor Shaun Bell

I have lived in Broxtowe for the last three years, and am passionate about local issues and getting involved where I can. In the past I have been involved in various different community projects. I work in the local area. Outside of work when not working on community projects I enjoy spending time with family and friends.

Councillor Helen Cutting

Councillor Thomas Hall

“I have lived in Trowell the whole of my life and spent seven happy years attending Trowell C of E Primary School. I stayed in the local area after finishing college, and I secured a First Class Master’s degree in Mathematics at the University of Nottingham. I am now training to be an Assistant Accountant at a Nottinghamshire company. I joined the Council because I want to help keep Trowell the great place it is and contribute towards the future of our great village. I also want to bring a young perspective to the important decisions and issues that the Council are responsible for in our community.”

Councillor Lavinia Harper

I am a friendly and approachable person, passionate about serving the community. As a mother, I understand the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for families. My advocacy and passion as a disability champion reflects my commitment to inclusivity and accessibility. I believe in the power of effective communication to build a strong community.

Councillor Cynth McGann

I joined the Parish Council in 2006. I have two children and three grandchildren. I had to give up work due to my disabilities. I use a wheelchair or electric scooter to get around so appreciate some of the problems associated with access and disabilities, so I advise the council on accessibility issues for the village and hall.

I have lived in Trowell since 1990, previously served as a Parish Councillor from 2015 until September 2023. My commitments at the time, meant that I was not able to give my full attention to my parish council duties.

I am now available again, to fully commit to serving Trowell Residents.

As your Parish Councillor, I will work hard to ensure that our Footpaths and Bridleways are always fit to use. We are extremely lucky to have a good network of them around the village.

Since 2015, I have worked hard to minimise the nuisance we sadly continue to have in the village with Odours from the adjoining Industrial Estate. I report road surfaces on a daily basis using the MyNotts App. Which I recommend everyone to use, using it, accurately pin points, issues with roads, potholes, street lights and pavements.

I am very happy to help any resident needing assistance, my Contact details are available on the Parish Council Website.
