I moved to Long Ashton in June 2021 and immediately felt the sense of identity it has. I have recently finished working in the realms of restoration and conservation with WWF, RSPB and the National Trust and wanted to get involved in my local area, to ensure we are doing our part to future proof our environment that we all rely on for clean air, water and our mental wellbeing. I am also aware that a councillor's role is to support ongoing and new projects that aren't nature focused but are still beneficial to ALL members of Long Ashton and Leigh Woods.
