Meet the team

Adrian Jarvis

Chair

I have lived in Leicestershire all my life and my love of the local countryside started at an early age. I have precious memories of time spent with family and friends in Bradgate Park, Swithland Wood, Beacon Hill and other delightful places around the city and county. From the freshness of spring, the warmth of summer, the renewal of autumn, to the crispness of picture postcard winters.

Our Leicestershire countryside faces substantial challenges, but the rewards for its protection and enhancement will leave a legacy that future generations can cherish. I am honoured to be Chair and it is a privilege to work with Trustees and Members and to collaborate with partners and the wider community, so we can all make positive progress for our countryside.

John Marriott

Trustee

Before I retired I used to be a Chartered Civil Engineer with a career embracing transport and planning and I am concerned about the lack of integration between the two. I have visited many parts of the UK and I am constantly amazed at its hugely varied and enjoyable countryside and am keen to help ensure it is not wasted. We must reduce our adverse impact on the countryside to help the environment and tackle Climate Change.

Rita Bullivant

Trustee

I was born in Leicester and grew up in the city centre. My primary school teacher to whom I shall be eternally grateful introduced all of us to the countryside and I have been passionate about the countryside around us and how precious it is. I recently became a trustee so I could help and do more to help the cause. I am a full-time working mum with 2 young girls, a dog, cat & plenty of fish – in the pond….
