Born in Castle Cary, Somerset, in 1939, I was brought up in Bournemouth.  After completing a two year Secretarial Course at Bournemouth College, I went off to London and spent three years working for The Times newspaper.  I then spent some years in Canada working in Toronto and Vancouver before returning and becoming PA to the Head of the F. English Group which included Maranello, the Ferrari importers.  I then married John and we lived in Bexleyheath for many years.  I worked in Dartford for Glaxo, the pharmaceutical company, in the Quality Assurance Division dealing with administration.

We retired and moved to Verwood in 2000 where I soon got involved with local issues, in particular the pathway from the new Potters Wheel car park into Manor Road.  I was a Governor at Hillside Community First School for nine years.

I was elected to the District Council in 2003 and re-elected in 2007 and 2011.  I was elected to the Town Council in 2007 and again in 2011.  I am the EDDC representative on Verwood Age Concern, the Heritage Centre and the Youth Centre.  I am now the Verwood Town Council Representative on the Verwood Community Association.
