Angie has been very happy to call Stone home for more than 18 years and has been an active member of several voluntary groups and a Stone Town Councillor during that time.

“As an Independent Town Councillor I would continue to support and encourage new businesses and ensure it remains a place with fantastic facilities that everyone can enjoy. Stone Independents have worked hard and achieved a great deal. I look forward to joining them and continuing these improvements.”
