Welcome to my web pages. I am the Unitary Councillor for St Francis and Stratford.

I NOW HAVE A NEW WEBSITE, WWW.MARYDOUGLAS.ORG, SO PLEASE LOOK THERE FROM DECEMBER 2011. THANK YOU

Background
I have lived in Salisbury for 13 years with my husband. We have twins, now grown-up, both of whom attended the local grammar schools. I worked for IBM before taking a career break to raise my children and subsequently worked in a secondary school.

I am a committed Christian, an active member of a local church and have worked as a volunteer with Wiltshire Parenting. I strongly believe that families are absolutely central to our society and I also want to encourage older people to engage more with the younger generations.

From 2005 - 2009, I was a County Councillor for St Marks and Bishopdown, serving on the Cabinet with responsibility for Children and Families, then Adult Social Care and, finally, Culture. More recently, I have served as Chair of the Salisbury Area Board and on the Vision for Salisbury Board and City Centre Management Partnership.

I currently chair Wiltshire SACRE (Standing Advisory Council for Religious Education) and am a member of the Southern Planning Committee, the Diocesan Board of Education and the Children’s Services Select Committee. I represent Wiltshire Council on the Board of a Housing Association and as an 'observer' on the Salisbury International Arts Festival Board. I am a Governor of St Mark's Junior School, where I chair the Curriculum Committee.

At your service...
I am keen to keep in touch with those I have been elected to represent. Please feel free to contact me on any matters of concern to you.
