Councillors and Officers

Cllr David Leggett : Chairman

I moved to Sandhurst in 1996 and first joined the parish council in 2001 because I felt I could contribute to planning for the future.

Before my retirement I was a senior manager in the NHS for over 30 years working in London hospitals, including Kings College Hospital and the Royal Marsden. Latterly I was the Chief Officer for Surrey Area Health Authority and was also asked to join a Government enquiry team co-writing a report on land and property in the NHS.

Cllr Mark Griggs

I have lived in Sandhurst for 22 years with my wife Julie and our 2 children. I was co-opted to the parish council in October 2019. I am interested in making a contribution to village life, to bring people together and to continue to work to make Sandhurst such a great place to live.

For the past 32 years I have worked in the aviation industry at both Gatwick and Heathrow.

My interests include sports in general and gardening. I am also interested in the wine industry and especially those estates close to us.

Cllr Mary Hiscock

I was born and raised in Sandhurst and attended both the local nursery and primary school. I live in the village with my husband and children who also attended the local schools. I was co-opted to the parish council in October 2019 because I believe there should be a wider group of individuals representing the parish and village.

I have numerous interests which include gardening and wildlife and am an allotment holder. I am interested in making a contribution to village life as a whole and am not afraid to address peoples' issues.

Cllr David Rogers

I was co-opted to the parish council in May 2020 because I have an interest in local governance and want to be able to contribute to the area where I live. This is the second time I have served on the parish council. I was a Parent Governor and Community Governor for Sandhurst Primary School for 14 years.

I work as a Chartered Building Surveyor and was involved in the extension to the Sports Pavilion and setting up the allotments.

I am interested in serving the whole community and believe it is important that any decision made is done so fairly and is open to scrutiny by the residents I represent.

Clerk & Proper Officer : Catherine Catt

I joined the parish council in February 2019. Before taking early retirement I worked for Kent County Council in a variety of senior positions including European Partnership & Funding Manager; Business Manager to the Head of Trading Standards, Registration and Community Safety. Latterly as the Staff Officer to the Corporate Director of the Customer & Communities Directorate I became interested in local democracy and governance which is why I applied for the position of Clerk & Proper Officer.

I have also worked as a European Sales Manager, School Business Manager and am currently a qualified Registrar with Kent Registration Service.

Responsible Finance Officer : Alan Crocker

I joined the parish council in August 2015. The majority of my career, some 30 years, has been spent in the financial services sector as a senior manager leading a team of some 54 personnel within a large corporate environment. Taking early retirement I was fortunate enough to be able to spend my time in various roles gaining more experience across a wide spectrum and working in parallel as a Parish Clerk & Proper Officer for close to 20 years.
