Cllr Sarah Jones
Leader of the Council
Biography
Sarah Jones, an Independent councillor for Willowbrook East (2026–2031), is a small business owner who is successfully running a local hardware store for over two decades. This background has made her a fierce advocate for local economic development and the Environment. She believes that a thriving local economy and a healthy environment are not mutually exclusive but are, in fact, interdependent. Sarah’s independence allows her to challenge both the major parties, often acting as a pragmatic voice in debates over planning and land use in the Willowbrook area.
Sarah’s primary concern is the preservation of green spaces amidst the pressure for new housing developments. She has proposed several initiatives to incentivize local businesses to adopt sustainable practices, aiming to make Willow brook East a model for "green commerce." She is a member of the local choir and a frequent volunteer at the community garden, where she finds the best ideas often come from informal conversations with her neighbors.
