After 30 years living in Reading my wife and I moved to East Devon in 2013. We spent a couple of years looking for a suitable place for 'extended family living' with land & came to Shaugh Parish in 2019. So 8 of us now live in the 3 houses with horses, Alpacas & other animal friends. Very different from central Reading! I have always chosen to be involved in local community activity & at times also in a professional capacity. Since retiring I have continued that involvement firstly through extended debates with DCC over the dramatic increase in accidents on the B3417 (which I hope will soon be resolved), through my engagement with the developing neighbourhood plan and since Nov 25 as a Parish Cllr. I have enjoyed meeting many of you during the consultation process for the neighbourhood plan, while we hold a wide range of views it is also encouraging to see a lot of common themes emerging. Forgiving me for borrowing an old expression - but we are certainly 'stronger together'. So lets keep talking.

With deep-rooted connections to the parish since my grandparents bought Shaugh Mill in the late 1960s, I care deeply about our landscape, heritage and community. During Covid I served as a parish community coordinator, and more recently I’ve been an active member of the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group, holding the role of treasurer. I’m committed to transparent, practical and community-focused decision-making that supports local people, protects our parish’s character and helps our villages thrive for future generations. I work in strategic project management and capital project delivery within local government, and I bring that experience to my role within the parish.

My name is Vanessa Tyler, those who know me call me Ness, I live in Wotter and have been here with my Husband Rob in the village since 1990. We have 3 children Robert, Hannah & Ellie, who all went to Shaugh Prior School, then onto Ivybridge, all of them have their own businesses now. We have dogs, and horses, Often you’ll see me walking across our beautiful countryside enjoying the fresh air in all weathers… Up ladders, painting, diy, gardening or relaxing in the sun when I get chance. I enjoy reading about our history, old things and passionate about architecture on historical buildings. I care very much about our parish, we have a wonderful community who can work together when things get tough. I have been on the Parish Council for over 15 years as a councillor to help keep our parish a wonderful place to live in. Just recently I have also become a Councillor for Plymouth. Feel free to ask me about anything that you would like me to mention at our council meetings.
