Councillor John Ambrose

We have lived in Holbrook since 1985 and I have been actively involved with village activities and recently the Parish Council as its Chairman. I believe that the Parish Council should represent all residents, to listen to their concerns and taking them up with the appropriate authorities. It is my intention to continue to be an active member of the community and to be a point of contact for residents.

Special Responsibilities - Chairman

Councillor Robert Allinson

I was born in Holbrook and grew up on Heathfield Road, before leaving to study Forestry and Wood Science at Bangor University. I returned to the village in 2013 with my wife, Emily (who also grew up in Holbrook) and our children, George and Esme, to build a timber house on Fishponds Lane.
I have been a Parish Councillor since early 2020, have served as the Tree Warden since 2016 and enjoy contributing regularly to the Parish Papers. I have also been lucky enough to have been involved with friends in organising ‘Captain Blood’ since 2014.
I work in the timber industry and enjoy all aspects of our wonderful surroundings, including long walks and messing about on the river.

Special Responsibilities - Tree Warden, Vice Chairman

Councillor Gerald Abbott

I have lived in Holbrook for 59 years so I would call myself a Holbrook person
I farmed at Brook Farm with my father for many years. I also took a very active role in looking after Holbrook Creek with Peter Page for many years and was on the Parish Council for a number of years about 25/30 years ago.

Councillor Sally Ingleton

Joined PC because if felt if I was fortunate enough to live in such a wonderful village as Holbrook I would like to give back to the community anyway I could

Councillor Denise Martin

Born and brought up in a village in Somerset, I moved to Suffolk to take up my first teaching post, where, apart from a brief spell in Devon, I have remained.
My family and I moved to Holbrook in 2004 having had contact with RHS and Ipswich High School and realising what a beautiful part of the County it was in which to live. Once retired, I was able to take a more active role in Village life. I joined the Peninsula gym, Peninsula Swimming Club, as well as enjoying Zumba classes at Holbrook Primary - something which I hope will resume soon.

Councillor Max Pittman

I have lived in Holbrook for the past 20 years, having moved from Stutton at the age of 2. I am currently working at a Big 4 professional services firm as an apprentice, looking to become a chartered accountant in the next couple years.
I love all things sport, with football being the centre of my life for many years. I run a lot so I'm sure you'll see me round the village now and again.
I've joined the Parish Council to give back to the community and to also give a voice to the younger generation of Holbrook. Hope to see you around, always open for a chat!

Councillor Alec Wright

Having visited Holbrook regularly as a youngster, our family moved to Holbrook in Oct 2018 and we have fallen in love with the village and surrounding areas. My wife Jennifer and I are very keen runners and can probably be spotted out running around Holbrook and the surrounding areas most days. We have one son, Leonardo, who attends the local school and Scouts. We also have a Cockapoo that we love taking for walks and visits to the local pubs.
As a professional project and change manager, I have spent my career working in large corporations and helping businesses to solve complex and long-term challenges and problems. I am keen to use my passionate and skills for continuous improvement and change to aid our village.
Feel free to stop me and say hello or ask a question if you see. I look forward to seeing around the village.
