Alan Pugh
I was born and raised in the industrial heartlands of the Black Country, a small village near Wolverhampton. On leaving school I joined ‘Post Office Telephones’ now BT, where I enjoyed a varied and successful 44-year career. It was a privilege to play a small part in the telecommunications revolution, being one of the first to experience the wonders of a fax machine, mobile comms, broadband, the Internet and beyond. As a senior manager, I championed diversity, the importance of lifelong learning and resilience in an increasingly complex and changing workplace. As a parish councillor, I’m hoping that I can deploy my skills/experience in a meaningful way and in service of the community which we are privileged to be a part of.
- In addition to being a school governor my key interests are:
The arts, including frequent visits to the RSC Stratford-upon-Avon and the National Theatre London. - Extensive foreign travel, including (in safer times) visiting Jordan, Syria and Libya. I have been lucky enough to see the northern lights in the arctic circle and the giant tortoises in the Galápagos Islands
- Regular walking/rambling, excellent for maintaining physical and mental well-being.
- Member of the National Trust
I very much look forward to playing an active role on the Parish Council, meeting lots of new people and most importantly learning lots of new things along the way!
