Sue Ball
Sue's early career was with a bank, before she moved into charity administration which is far more fulfilling! Sue has worked for charities including The National Trust and, since 2004, Norwich Cathedral. North Elmham became Sue's home in 2006 and she loves living here, having made many friends. Sue hopes that the thriving community spirit in the village will continue for many years to come.
Ivan Ball
For over 30 years Ivan's chosen career was with a high street bank, mainly developing new products and services. He now helps to run a family-owned factory in Dereham employing two dozen crafts-people. He was made exceedingly welcome on his arrival in North Elmham and hopes to repay some of that goodwill by playing a small part in community activities.

He also devotes a lot of time to promoting the well-being of older people (he's one himself and he's chairman of Age Concern Norfolk). Then there's work on disability issues, particularly on removing the obstacles that prevent people, whatever their impairment, from getting around. He's a past chairman of the Dereham and District Access group and is still an active member. He's also a founding trustee of the Norfolk Coalition of Disabled People. His leisure is devoted to self-indulgence and survival."

Peter Smith
Following a career in advertising & marketing- including the last 10 years working in the developing markets of Eastern Europe & Middle East, Peter decided that it was time to return to his Norfolk Roots. He works for the Norfolk RCC a charity that helps rural communities be stronger and more sustainable. His role there is mainly working on community consultation and community enterprise (shops, post offices, pubs, local food etc all things that make up the hub of villages)
He is working with the steering group providing support from the experiences from the thousands of community plans that have been previously prepared across the country.
His loves are his family and most sports inc marrow dangling, passing the splod, Portuguese sardine racing, conger cuddling, rhubarb thrashing, and dwile flonking.
His hates are bureaucracy, narrow minded box tickers and disproportionate admin costs that reduce effectiveness.
