With your help, I can bring continuity and continue to campaign at the Borough Council on these issues. I'm really looking forward to working as a new team." Councillor Marie Males retires in May after 40 years of representing the Leake Ward, and Borough Councillor John Thurman paid tribute to her and said “Marie has worked hard as a Borough Councillor for the Leake Ward for many years and she epitomises what public service to a local community is all about. We will miss her and her vast knowledge of the local area and her sound advice.” Councillor Ron Hetherington has been selected as the Conservative Candidate for the adjoining Ward of Sutton Bonington.
