I am truly excited to be a Ward Champion and have the privilege of serving the residents of Shirley South.

Full statement

My working life has spanned various office positions from starting my career as a shorthand typist in the South African Railways upon leaving school, to company secretarial governance and share trust administration with the ability to build strong relations with all stakeholders. I have over 25 years of experience in a range of business activities including auditing, asset management, corporate law, Corporate & Institutional Banking, fast moving consumer goods, share trusts and various niche markets.

I became a British Citizenship upon marrying my Liverpool born husband in 1972 and immigrated to UK in 2017. Subsequent to arriving in UK it seemed prudent to ensure that I had acceptable British qualifications to offer, if needed, so undertook and received a level 3 hairdressing NVQ qualification from Croydon College. Although South African born my heritage was and is predominantly British in family culture. My family love Britain and all my immediate family live in UK.

It is my absolute resolve and intentional delight to if elected serve the residents of Shirley South ward in accordance with the mandate of Reform UK’s Croydon comprehensive set of policies designed to deliver a safer, more prosperous, and resident-focused future for the borough ensuring urgent practical solutions, fiscal discipline, and community empowerment.

Reform Croydon aims to restore pride in our communities, boost our economy, and ensure every resident’s voice shapes our borough’s destiny.
Reform pledges to, inter alia, tackle crime, fix the finances, protect the Green Belt, reform local services, and get Croydon moving.

Truly looking forward to being of service to the residents of Shirley!
