My husband and I moved into Dilton Marsh in August 2018. We had been visiting the area for 2 days every week since 2012 to spend time caring for our 2 grandchildren who were both born and live in Frome with our daughter and her husband. I joined the PC in 2020. I’m honoured to have been elected Chair of DMPC for the year ahead.
I worked in the NHS for 34 years before retiring from my post as Specialist Heath Visitor for Substance Misusing Families. We were also Foster Carers for very young children and babies for 10 years after retirement.
I have a keen interest in village life, I love the idea of improving the environment with projects like the pollen corridor, the new community orchard and following my roots continue to want to help the people around me. Once a nurse/carer always a need to care.
When I have time I enjoy walking our pooch, reading, knitting and completing various crafts along with volunteering for Cats In Distress Working Cats Program.
