I am a Labour councillor for Battle Ward, Reading.
I was born in Derby and moved to Reading when I was 3. I went to Wilson
Primary then Meadway Secondary were I gained 10 GSCE’s and 3 A Levels. I
then decided to go to the University of Reading where I gained a degree
in BSc Rural Environmental Science.
I worked for Waitrose then joined Prudential which is where I met my
husband, Marcel. In 2008 my role was transferred to Capita where I work
as a part-time Senior Pension Administrator.
I also work part-time as a Social Media Content Creator for cloth nappy company TotsBots.
It was at Prudential where I became a union rep for Unite (previously
MSF and Amicus). As well as being a workplace rep, I am also a fully
trained Learning Rep.
I have been a member of the Labour Party
since I was 16 and involved locally from a young age.
I married in 2005 and have two sons.
I have lived in Reading, and Battle Ward almost my entire life. I now
live in the heart of the community I represent and I am enjoying being a
councillor.
Welcome to my blog. I am using it to keep you updated on my work as a councillor for Battle ward, Chair of the Art and Heritage forum and an activist for Unite the Union. I cover the issues affecting Battle ward and Reading residents. There may also be the occasional random post about things I am interested in.
