I grew up in a large noisy family with four sisters and a brother, money was scarce, with winters spent squashed into one room and a reliance on free school dinners and jumble sales to get by. I know the difficulties of when there are only pennies available to pay for food or heating.
My childhood was dominated by my mum studying for exams, ultimately graduating from the Open University and becoming a midwife.
Access to education not only changed my mother’s life but it fundamentally altered our life paths as well, opening us all up to new opportunities, experiences, ideas and aspirations we would never have otherwise dreamed of, and this is what I want for Bassetlaw people.
As Deputy Leader of the Council, I led on the visioning and work to get the funding for the newly opened Bridge Skills Hub in Worksop, providing access to skills and training up to degree level.
People say I get things done, I’m an instinctive campaigner, a grafter and I always work to win.
Ask me a question, offer your support, and keep up to date with my campaign to be your Labour Parliamentary candidate.
