Councillor Steve Horton

In 2016, we relocated from Eccleshall, Stafford to the peaceful countryside of Bagnall. This move was centered around our dream project: converting a barn on our smallholding into what is now our cherished home. The project allowed us to immerse ourselves in rural life, where I’ve been able to pursue my passion for country sports and spend time with horses.

Beyond my life in the countryside, I am also a director of a small but successful electrical contracting company. Balancing the demands of business with personal interests has been rewarding. When I’m not at work, I often find myself enjoying the tranquillity of The Moorlands, where long walks give me a break from the hustle and bustle.

I also stay actively involved with the community, helping coach the Leek under-12 rugby team. Being part of their growth and development has been a fantastic experience, and it allows me to combine my love for sports with contributing to the next generation of players.
