Cllr. Jackie Stanton

Personal Statement

My role at Oldham Council

I represent the residents of the St James’ Ward and sit on the East Oldham Area Committee.

I am Vice Chair for First Choice Homes.

I am also a member of the Performance and Continuous Improvement Overview and Scrutiny Commission.

Political Interests & Experience

I have been a Councillor at Oldham Council for 10 years, and have been involved with the Liberal Democrats for 12 years. I actively campaign and canvass for the Lib Dems in the run up to elections, both national and local.

Politically, I am very interested in Housing, which I believe is a fundamental concern of the residents of my ward. I also take a keen interest in conservation issues and the environment.

Other Interests

I am a member of Friends of Stoneleigh Park in Derker – we turned the park round from the wilderness into one of the premier parks in the country, an achievement which I am very proud of.

I have lived in Derker all my life.  I am now retired, having worked in Personnel and running a family business. Most of my spare time is taken up by my family – in particular my granddaughter!

In the past I attended Church regularly although these days my work as a Councillor for St James’ takes up the majority of my days!
