Hello, my name is Laura Edmonds and I am a local resident living in Swallowfield, having recently moved the short distance from Riseley! My husband and I live in the village with our 3yr old son and 1yr old daughter, 3 dogs and a horse. I am active within the community and believe community matters. 

I am lead on recreation in the parish council and hence involved with the playgrounds in the area, most recently the Riseley Playground project. I am also part of the finance committee. 

Personally, I am the administrator/manager of the Facebook page "Swallowfield Community" which has over 2,000 members, which is a great forum (although not a council  one) to help the community, bring people together and share thoughts/ideas etc. 

Having experience in a number of areas, including finance, rural affairs, communications, and HR I hope to continue to contribute to the beautiful area we live in.

 Swallowfield, Riseley, Farley Hill is a lovely place to live and work and as parish councillors we are working hard to help it remain that way.

Away from council work, my husband and I run a busy accountancy practice with offices in Grazeley and Binfield. In my spare time I enjoy riding and competing my horse, walking our dogs and spending time with my friends and family.

Hopefully I will see or hear from you soon and remember to let me know your thoughts, ideas or feedback on Parish matters.
