Len Cooper - Groundsman

Len has been responsible for maintaining Speldhurst Parish Council grounds for nine years and brings lots of of practical experience to the role. Having lived with his wife in Groombridge for the last eleven years, he thoroughly enjoys the benefits of working locally.

Len started his career as a City and Guilds trained Carpenter before joining the London Fire Brigade where he stayed for twenty-five years, receiving both Silver and Gold Jubilee service medals. Len is first aid trained, and when he is not working for Speldhurst Parish Council, works part time for Hospice in the Weald and drives non-emergency ambulance services for G4S patient transport.

With their two sons now grown up, Len and his wife have been making the most of their free time with frequent travel.
