Exploring the rich history and legacy of those who have served as High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire
High Sheriff 2023-2024
Kurshida has a passion for working with communities and has developed a unique vehicle in Milton Keynes (MK) for engaging with diverse communities and in particular Muslims and faith-based communities who are seldom heard and less visible.
Kurshida is the founder of Trubys Garden Tea Room, an interfaith pop-up café promoting positive dialogue between Muslims and the wider community in MK – this has become an important conduit for community engagement with diverse communities from 2020-2023, Chair of Citizens MK from 2016-2019, and Chair of Midlands Region of the Housing Learning and Improvement Network (Housing LIN) between 2016-2020.
Kurshida has a research, policy and strategy background working for local and central government with strong track record in social action. She held many portfolios in Government including leading on housing for vulnerable and older people, community engagement, tackling workless and homelessness.
Read MoreThere were 459 previous High Sheriffs of Buckinghamshire from 1575 to today. Prior to 1575, the High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire was combined with Bedfordshire. Those records date back to 1125, which adds another 318 to the list. So there have been 777 High Sheriffs overseeing Buckinghamshire since 1125.
Records before that time are much less reliable, with the earliest High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire being recorded as "Godric" before 1066, who was "killed in 1066".
