About me
I have lived in Tenterden for 40 years.
What interests me?
- Spreading the word about events and what's on in Tenterden
- Supporting businesses
- Promoting tourism and supporting the High Street – the heart of our community
- Advocating for fairer parking charges and proper policing
- Tackling the dreaded potholes
- Improving local infrastructure
I have a keen interest in local affairs and am actively involved in the community helping with various events.
I'm one of the organisers of the Spirit of Tenterden Community Festival (this year the festival runs from 4-6 July 2025 on Tenterden Recreation Ground!. Find out more about the festival >>> here
Professionally I am a registered chiropodist and podiatrist. I have worked in Tenterden for 37 years alongside my husband Bill who is an osteopath and acupuncturist.
My hobbies are swimming, health and technology.

I was elected to Tenterden Town Council in 2013 and have been actively involved with Council matters since then.
I manage the My Tenterden website www.mytenterden.co.uk plus social media accounts for Tenterden and the very popular email newsletter

I do appreciate though that not everyone is online and so believe that noticeboards and talking to people are just as important. I look after the community side of the Town Hall noticeboard for the Town Council.
My husband Bill is a Rotarian so all in all we have a very busy life.
