Originally from Manchester, returning to UK in 2005 after 16 years in Dublin, I moved to New Mills in 2017 after supporting New Mills Festival for a couple of years as a volunteer.

Family circumstances prevented me standing for the 2023 election, so I am proud to have now been selected for co-option onto New Mills Town Council. I am an experienced placemaker and community/business development specialist and I look forward to bringing this skill set to the work of NMTC. I am also a food consultant and look forward to supporting our local farmers, growers and food makers.
