I was brought up to love life, sport, the countryside, our island, and our community. I enjoy volunteering through sports and charities, as it gives me great satisfaction to give back to those who have supported me and my family. I live with my husband, our 10-year-old son, our dog, and two cats.
My experiences as a parent of a child with SEND have taught me that every child’s journey is unique, and that sharing thoughts, experiences and tips can make a huge difference in navigating what can be a challenging time for families. I joined the Parent Carer Forum after attending a networking meeting, where I first felt truly listened to and supported.
As a committee member, I’m passionate about helping families feel heard and included. I’m committed to improving communication and collaboration across island agencies so parents feel better supported and empowered to support their children.
