About The Mayor 2009 - 2010

Cllr Eileen Anderson

Born in Durham to Scottish parents, we moved to Bognor Regis when I was three years old. My Father joined the then Bognor Regis Urban District Council. I was educated at Nyewood C of E School and Villa Maria Convent High School in Bognor Regis. I attended Secretarial College for one year and my first job was in the Treasurer's Department at Bognor Regis Urban District Council. I left there after five years to get married and start a family. At this time my Father became Chairman of Bognor Regis Urban District Council. Other employments included ten years with Pearl Assurance in Chichester, working in the office of Age Concern, in a Doctor's practice and finally at the Head Quarters of West Sussex Fire Service in Chichester in the Personnel Department.

My interests include singing in a local group, flower arranging, the W.I., where I have arranged various events, Horticultural Club and the Bognor Regis Organ and Keyboard Club. I also attend the Arun Leisure Centre in Felpham and am a keen walker.

I have always carried a flag for Bognor Regis and am confident we can improve our image more and more, with the help of the Council and local organisations.
