Lucy Sloane-Williams (North West Hampshire Liberal Democrats)

Lucy Sloane-Williams: Candidate for Whitchurch, Overton and Laverstoke Ward

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council 2022

My husband, daughter and I moved to Overton 29years ago. I quickly discovered how lovely this part of Hampshire is, as I ferried various
children to and from Overton Primary School, Lordsfield Swimming Club and Testbourne School.
As a Liberal Democrat I have always been in favour of localism and so I joined Overton Parish Council, where I served for over two decades.
During this time, including two years as Chair, I gained a wide range of experience from helping to steer a new Neighbourhood Plan (NP), to repeatedly reporting potholes and clearing up after
occasional bouts of vandalism.
Today I am once again part of a small team steering Overton's NP Review and look forward to
learning Overton residents' views and collaborating with the Whitchurch team.
As the director of a small Housing Association and with training in environmental management, I am keen to work for greater energy efficiency and opportunities for new low carbon heating
technologies in the home.
We all need to keep warm but not at any price
