You may have heard about an outbreak of Meningitis in the county, and we can understand that you may be worried about this. In response to this, we want to ensure that you are aware of what symptoms to look out for and understand what you need to do if you or your young person develops symptoms.
Please note, our College remains open as usual, and at present, we have not recorded any confirmed cases.
Passionate about empowering communities, shaping better futures, and serving the people of Kent, I have dedicated the past decade to creating opportunities and driving social change across the VCSEF and housing sectors. My career has been rooted in a commitment to supporting grassroots organisations, strengthening local voices, and building environments where people can thrive.
As the Chief Executive of a VCSEF organisation, I work closely with community groups, partners, and stakeholders to develop initiatives that deliver meaningful impact. I am particularly motivated by the power of collaboration, bringing people together to address local challenges, widen access to services, and support those who may otherwise go unheard.
Alongside my professional work, I am deeply committed to public service. Since being elected as a councillor at Thanet District Council in 2023, I have focused on championing community priorities, advocating for fairness, and supporting efforts that make a tangible difference to residents’ lives. In 2024, I had the privilege of serving as Mayor of Margate, an honour that allowed me to further celebrate local culture, amplify community spirit, and represent a town I care about deeply.
I also serve as a Director at East Kent Mencap, where I contribute to the organisation’s mission of supporting people with learning disabilities to live their lives as independently and fully as possible.
Additionally, as Chair of Governors at Northdown Primary School, I am committed to ensuring that children in our community receive high-quality education, strong pastoral support, and the opportunities they need to flourish.
