Councillor Roger Mannion
Councillor Roger Mannion

It is with great sadness that we learned of the death of Roger Mannion.  Roger was a truly great man who formerly had served in the Fleet Air Arm as a helicopter pilot during the Falklands conflict.  Subsequently he ran his own business, lectured in adult education, wrote and published four books on steam railways and was Technical Director for Chelmsford Theatre Workshop. 

Since retirement, Roger served as a Tiptree Parish Councillor and took on the role of Chairman before being elected twice as a Colchester Borough/City Councillor representing Tiptree. Roger worked tirelessly for the community of Tiptree and the residents of Tiptree still enjoy the benefits of his labours. 

The councillors and staff of Tiptree Parish Council wish to remember Roger with great gratitude. 

He will be sorely missed and our thoughts are with Christine and the family.

About Tiptree
Formed in March 1934, Tiptree Parish Council is now the local authority for one of the largest villages in England with a population in excess of 9,000. The village is situated approximately 10 miles from Colchester, close to the A12 trunk road, and is one of 27 wards administered by Colchester City Council. The Parish Council consist of 15 elected Councillors, and a staff of 8 employee’s.

One of our primary tasks is the care of our green spaces. These are the sites that we have ownership (or long leases) on, such as Windmill Green, Grove Road Lake, The Grove Road Playing Fields, Park Lane Nature Reserve, the Memorial Gardens, the Community Hall, our Parish Offices and assorted other sites we are in the process of bringing on board or devolving to the care of others.
