I was born in Liverpool but moved to Suffolk when I was 3. I have two children and a 2½ year old granddaughter called Rosie.
I began work at Nilfisk aged 17 until I was 32, with a short stint at Shering Plough in Mildenhall during that period.
After some maternity leave I joined St Edmundsbury Borough Council in January 1998 and worked there until 31 August this year when I retired. I spent the last sixteen years working at The Apex which was an amazing place to work.
My husband Darren had a heart attack in 2010 and is now the Upbeat Vice-Chairman. He suggested that I become a member of the committee as I now have a lot of free time so here we are!
