I'm an English girl, born and rooted right here in Hampshire, and I feel so blessed to be surrounded by generations of my own family. Any day now, I'm about to become a mother myself.
Bringing my own child into the world has put everything into focus.
As a Christian, this is what I hold closest: I believe in strong families. I believe in strong communities. I believe in child protection. I believe in the safety of women and girls.
It is something I have given my time to for years, with qualifications in child safety and development along the way.
I love my country with all my heart. 🇬🇧
