I am new to being a councillor, having been elected to the Parish Council in May 2023. I moved into the village in 2018 with my husband Steven and we live in the centre of the village next to the church with our cat Lily and our Golden Retriever Tia. Please do stop me and say hello if you see me walking around the village. I have 2 children and 3 grandchildren.
I recently retired after a career spanning 38 years in the NHS, starting as a nurse, specialising in theatres, and eventually holding the position of Chief Operating Officer at West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust.
I am keen to support village life in any way that I can to ensure that we can all enjoy a clean and safe environment and the benefits of a friendly and thriving community.
