Tisbury Parish Council has co-opted local campaigner and travel industry professional Nick Errington as its newest parish councillor following the retirement of Jo Ings in December.

Nick said: “I am thrilled to have been co-opted onto Tisbury Parish Council. I have lived in Tisbury for seven years and love living in the area. I appreciate the natural beauty of the countryside and the strong sense of community in Tisbury and look forward to taking on a more active role in Tisbury life as part of the council. I would encourage anyone interested in joining the council to attend one of the meetings to get a flavour.”

Nick is also South West Wiltshire Liberal Democrats’ prospective candidate for Tisbury, and a member of Nadder Valley Arts Society Committee, the Tisbury Footpath Club and the Beckford Society.

Tisbury Parish Council chair Simon Davison said: “We are sad to say goodbye to Jo Ings but delighted to welcome Nick, whose passion for the environment, local history and the countryside will be an asset to our team. Tisbury Parish Council is looking to

increase its team of eight councillors ahead of the local elections, planned for May 6.

Simon added: “I would urge anyone who cares deeply about our community and our environment, to apply. Parish councils are an essential part of the local democratic structure and our councillors play an important role acting on key issues affecting us all.”
