Councillor Dave Sheppard lives in Parkgate and was first elected to represent the people of Rawmarsh and Parkgate in 2016. During that time, he has enjoyed working alongside existing community groups as well as being a founder member of Rawmarsh and Parkgate Friends of Green Spaces, a group focused on making the area cleaner, safer, and greener. Dave was Chair of RMBC Planning Board for three years until taking up his new role as Cabinet Member for Social Inclusion in 2021, becoming Deputy Leader of the Council from May 2024 until March 2025.
Originally from Chesterfield, Dave joined NatWest Bank upon leaving school aged sixteen and worked in a variety of roles for seventeen years before spending six and a half years living and working on the Greek island of Samos.
