Parish council

Councillors

White Waltham Parish Council was formed along with many others in 1894 following an act of Parliament.

Apart from the village of White Waltham itself, the Parish includes the villages of Woodlands Park and Littlewick and the hamlets of Woolley Green, Paley Street and Littlefield Green. There are just under 3000 registered electors in the Parish as a whole. Most of the Parish lies within the Green Belt and certain parts of the Parish have been designated as conservation areas. The main function of the Council is to represent the Community along with and to act as the interface with the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead and other agencies as appropriate.
The Parish Council is responsible for the maintenance of the Green at Littlewick (of which it is the registered owner), Phipps Close recreational area, Waltham Grove Park and Cherry Orchard. In addition to the Woodlands Park Village Centre, the Parish Council also manages the Parish Hall in White Waltham Village and the tennis courts in White Waltham.

Chris has lived in the Borough for most of his life and in the Parish of White Waltham since 1995. He currently works in London as a civil servant and joined the council in 2022. He lives with his wife and two sons in the village, and was previously Head of Governors at the White Waltham primary school, which both his sons attended. He has a keen interest in improving local facilities for residents and hobbies include cycling, kayaking and listening to music.

Jessica Pocock

My name is Jessica Pocock and I am 36 years old. I have lived in Woodlands Park for over 30 years and enjoy watching my three children grow up where I did. Having spent most of my life here I felt it was time to get involved with the local community which provides so much. I look forward to meeting more people from the Parish and helping where I can.

Kevin Webb

My name Is Kevin Webb, I have lived in Woodlands Park for over 40 years. I have been part of the community most of that time, helping to get the football pitch at the Phipps Close play area established, and the building of the Woodlands Park Village Centre. I believe being part of the Parish Council helps the needs of Woodlands Park.

Patrick has lived in the parish for 60 years and is currently serving as the chairman, a post he has held twice before. He is passionate about the local area and helping residents and has been a parish councilor since 1994. He was responsible for the building of the Woodlands Park Village Centre after 12 years of campaigning, working with developers and the local authority, ensuring the parish council were given a lease of 35 years. Using developers money Patrick oversaw the development of a commemoration of this country’s military service of a soldier and plaques where residents can come to remember the fallen. Patrick has volunteered with the Woodlands Park youth club for nearly 30 years. Patrick is a lifelong supporter of Maidenhead United and rarely misses a home game.
