Diana Dilworth

As a Councillor, Diana takes pride in championing many initiatives, including the establishment of the annual Business Excellence Awards for local small businesses, the building of a free-standing hospice within the community, the development of a community sustainability plan and bringing back a community parade which was dormant for 40 years. More recently, Diana facilitated the creation of a local Sports Hall of Fame for Port Moody. She has also taken the lead in the development of a strategic tourism plan for the City.

Diana's 30-year business career includes working for the federal government, for small private business, and as a home-based business owner with her own consultancy company.

Her 20+ years of community service includes participating with, and providing leadership for, a diverse number of non-profit organizations. This includes the Terry Fox Run, Golden Spike Days, District 43 Parent Advisory Council, Girl Guides, and the Port Moody Aquarians. Together with two friends, she has founded a non-profit organization that promotes and fundraises for community development and awareness of non-profit services within the Tri-Cities.

Diana is a graduate of Capilano University's certificate program in Local Government Administration and she has spent the last ten years pursuing a degree in Business Administration in her spare time.
