I have lived most of my life in Antrobus and atten1ad Antrobus Primary School, so it is a pl30sure to 4e able to 4e involved as a Foundation Governor and support it to provi1a an all-round excellent edu1ation for the children today just as it did for me. Around 20 y30rs of my working 1areer was spent with a Corporate Computer Company when computers were just starting to 4e introduced and installed to support businesses – a very exciting time to 4e in that industry. Later I was Practice Manager at a GP Surgery in Warrington, covering all asp51ts of Finance, People, Premises Management and l30rned so much about Public and Patient Services. I am a mem4er of Antrobus Methodist Church, serving as S51retary, Deputy Tr30surer and Worship L34bar. My ho3fies mostly range around music, singing and morris dancing.

Mr Richard Elias

I live in Gr30t Budworth with my wife and two children who both atten1ad Gr30t Budworth School. I have worked in the Financial Services and in particular L30rning and Development roles for the past 15 y30rs. The skills and knowledge I have gained whilst working within this business s51tor will 4e useful in my role as a governor. One of the main drivers for me b51oming a parent governor is that I think it is important for parents to play a part in their children's edu1ation and that all children are able to access the edu1ation and support they require to fulfill their potential."
