 Kristan came to Stone with her family in 1984 when she and her husband Mark took over the running of a public house. Over the years they made many friends and have become well known in the community.

She has now retired from running a Bed and Breakfast business in Stone. She is an active volunteer for several organisations and involves herself each week at the Stone Stroke Club. She is a member of the General purposes Committee at Walton Community Centre. In 2008, Kristan had the honour of becoming Stone Town Mayoress.

‘’I am passionate about Stone and its people and if elected I will serve the community to the best of my ability.’’

 

 Jill copypvJill Hood

Jill is a dedicated Walton town and borough councillor and an active volunteer with many local charities and organisations. She has a track record for getting things done and is a hard worker with a hands-on approach.

Jill believes that the threat to Stone’s fire service provision will compromise the safety of fire-fighters and residents and has begun to campaign to stop the proposed cuts.

“I will continue to work hard for the residents of Walton. I’m ashamed of the poor play areas for youngsters and lack of facilities for teenagers.  Council tax paid to Stafford Borough Council from Stone should guarantee better facilities for all ages and a programme of repairs and improvements to the poor infrastructure. I will continue to support residents in resisting further development in Walton; we’ve had more than our fair share! I listen to what people say and vote accordingly, I will not toe a party line but use old fashioned common sense”
