I've been a Parish Councillor since May 2002.  I am currently on the Finance Sub-Committee and represent the Parish Council on the Village Hall Committee and Recreation Association.

I live with my partner Geoff.  I'm Clerk to Godshill Parish Council and am also currently studying full time for a MSc in Forensic Anthropology at Bournemouth University.  I previously worked in the field of Election Observation and Political Monitoring.  My interests include: Bell ringing at Cranborne and Wimborne St Giles, gardening and reading (of which I have to do rather a lot at the moment).  I also enjoy baking cakes.
