Â鶹´«Ã½

Former Mayor of Â鶹´«Ã½, Sally Blake, has died aged 84.

Sally was first elected to Â鶹´«Ã½ Borough Council in 1983 and represented the Gossops Green ward until 1991. She was re-elected in 2002 for Pound Hill North.

Sally was mayor in 2006/7 and 2007/8. She was the first Conservative mayor and only the second mayor to serve two consecutive terms of office.

Sally Blake's grandfather moved to Â鶹´«Ã½ in the 1890s, and she had lived in Â鶹´«Ã½ since the start of the second world war.

She was a former trustee of the Courage Dyer Recreational Trust.

Our thoughts are with Sally’s family at this sad time.
