Hello, I am Sal Millar, retired now, apart from running Bed and Breakfast in Silecroft and the odd graphics or pet portrait work.  I moved to Silecroft in 2005, but have known and loved it since my parents retired here in 1973. I knew the area well before that, from childhood holidays with my uncle, who lived and worked locally.

My ex-husband’s job involved a lot of moves, so I have had several jobs.  I have worked as a technician, both in schools and hospitals, but my major employment has been in environmental education and interpretive graphics. When I first moved to Silecroft I worked at HMP Haverigg in the library.

I was asked to join the Silecroft Beach Improvement Group in 2013 and have been involved with the cafe project since then.

I am also a director of Black Combe (Whicham) Community Interest Company.
