Diana Tremayne is one of our Labour councillors for Todmorden Ward, and Deputy Mayor of Calderdale. She says:

I love living in Todmorden where I support our local community and businesses through small actions like litter picking, gardening and shopping locally, as well as reducing the effects of climate change and issues such as the flooding we have faced here in Todmorden.

I’m passionate about educational opportunities for all ages and am really keen to help promote these in Todmorden using my skills and experience in education. This was the reason I got involved with the Todmorden Learning Centre project.

The council faces huge challenges after years of austerity but has maintained key services and shown a real commitment to the most vulnerable in society. I am working hard for the town with my Labour colleagues Silvia Dacre and Helen Brundell now and in the years to come.
