I enjoy travel, cooking, gardening and dog walking.

My Children and I moved to Oldwalls in 2011 when I married my countryman husband.
My daughter attended Bibury C of E school and since that time I have enjoyed being proactive in the community, a role which led me to help organising Murder mystery dinners and social events within our village.
I worship at Arlington Baptist Church where I am undertaking leadership training.
I am self employed and run a catering hire company from home.
I have a passion for the environment and have been heavily involved in water/river projects within our parish.
I am committed to retaining the origin of our village and the essence of village life.

Following a career in construction, we moved to Bibury in 2004. Since then I have served on various committees in the Village and subsequently became a member of the Parish Council.My interests include sport, the arts, travel, my family including the grandchildren and importantly, the preservation of the village and the environment '.

I moved to Bibury from London in 2012, and joined the parish council in September 2018.I am a journalist and author.
