I have spent my whole working life in education initially as a specialist design teacher in secondary schools. My career progressed and I have worked in a leadership capacity in a number of schools across greater Manchester during my career.
During 2016 / 2017 I decided to retire from teaching to become my father in laws primary carer. This required focussed dedication to an individual and providing daily support to allow him to live a full life within the confines of reduced mobility and the onset of Parkinsons.
The onset of Covid changed everybody’s life and I wanted to help and support others in my locality. I volunteered for the NHS Good SAM role Initially to support and provide stewardship for Covid vaccinations. Now, five years on, I have continued to support this initiative for the benefit of my new community and beyond offering to collect shopping and medications from Pharmacies alongside the regular telephone calls.
I moved to Northumberland in august 2021 and fell in love with both the area and also the welcoming nature of the people. Some of which I can now humbly say are my close friends. It was very much like coming home!
In discussion with a local councillor I was invited to join the NCEA school’s trust as a governor for one of their special schools. I was swiftly invited to become the Chair of Governors for the school and still hold this position. The opportunity to support my local special school is a privilege and an honour I hope to continue to live up to.
During 2024 I took the decision to apply for Cresswell Parish Council. The village is small but I want all our residents to have a voice, feel listened to. I have thrown myself into this role and look forward to the opportunities it will bring as my experience grows.
