MEET THE COUNCILLORS - Part 1 - Part 2 Part 3
Tony Willars
A retired self-employed retailer, Tony is married with two
children and two grandchildren. He is a native
Barrovian, but has also lived in Sileby and Seagrave.
He has been on Hall Orchard PTFA and the Scout
Committee. Following retirement, he wants to put a bit
into the village.
He hates litter and is particularly concerned at the
absence of litter bins away from the centre of the
village.
He says "I wish to see the quality of life for all people in
Barrow to be improved".

Judith Rodgers
A resident at 155 for 35 years, Judith retired as a teacher last year. She is married with three children
and four grandchildren.
As long standing member and currently chair of the
Community Association, Judith has played a major role
in village affairs for some time. But she sees the Parish
Council as having the real power.
"Good communication is all", she says. "We have Barrow Voice, Barrow Focus, the Neighbourhood
Watch leaflet and now the village website. There are
three computers available to the public in the library
and I would like to discuss the possibility of the same
facility being made available in the Parish Council
office".

Brian Henman
Semi-retired building surveyor and lifelong village
resident. Now starting his 25th year in the Chair.
Why does he stay on? Because he enjoys it. Also, with
such a big turnover of Councillors this time, he thought
that his years of experience would be valuable.
He regards making progress with Sileby Road
enhancement as being one of the big challenges facing
the Council. Drawings are available, providing for
traffic calming, including central refuges, and
improvements to the verges. But where will the money
come from?
Brian says "I look forward to serving the village as
Chairman of the Council for the next twelve months and
I hope that we can continue with the successes that we
have achieved over the last four years".
