As a resident and active community member of Painswick, I believe I have the appropriate skill set to become a valuable member of the council.Since moving to the village three years ago, I have been at the forefront of the 'Stop The Mast campaign' and the subsequent fundraising for the recreation trust.My background, before having my four children and embracing village life, was as a PR/News Editor/Community Manager for an online publishing company. Prior to this position, I worked for one of the South-West's leading PR agencies.I have a joint honours degree in Sociology and Drama and Theatre Studies from University of Surrey. Since graduation, I have kept my hand in with academia by studying for an Intermediate Certificate in Counselling Skills at South Gloucestershire College, Bristol and a one year doula course with the NCT, at the University of Worcester.I recognise the role of Parish Councillor as one of great responsibility and I believe I have the qualities and sense of duty to serve the best interests of the people in the locality.Mobile: 07957 161839Home: 01452 810706Email dawndart@painswick-pc.gov.ukCommittees: Planning, Rural Environment, Traffic and Land & Buildings.
