Ruth Stafford - Trustee I was born in Welshpool, brought up on a farm in Forden where my parents still live, then went to Aberystwyth Uni, moved away for work in 2005 and came back to the area for good in 2008.
My paid employment has included Mid Wales businesses, Oxfam, Teaching and 7 years in sustainable transport. In October 2011 I started as Waste Awareness Officer for Powys County Council, and am very open to your waste reduction ideas! I am very proud to contribute to LLES and the excellent people involved in it.
| Other Trustees:- Tim Coleridge Craig Richards Annie Levy George Marshall |
I have been with LLES since 2005. Having been brought up in Mid Wales, I lived away for a few years but have now returned to stay. I have always been concerned about conserving the Earth's resources and this role suits me down to the ground!
"Having lived in Africa for some time and also Sri Lanka, I became concerned about the effect climate change would have on vulnerable people all over the world and convinced that we can’t leave it to politicians to act. It is up to us to make changes in our own lives and spread the message to others. Llanidloes has taken a lead, and more and more communities are taking action. Together we can make a difference."
I've always been interested in sustainability issues, actively supporting many 'green' organisations. I joined LLES in 2002, and became a trustee after being asked at a party at Dol Llys in Llanidloes, Christmas 2010.
