Full statement

She has been involved in Scarborough Green Party for many years. Throughout her adult life she has been involved in many environmental issues. Firstly, and still in the Anti-Nuclear Movement, she has always been a great advocate of the Soil Association and locally organically produced foods. She has complained against GM foods. Annette has written a skill sharing, vegan and environmental cookbook which is available online. She has been a member of various NGO's such as Friends of the Earth and Greenpeace and other climate change related groups.

Her three children all attended local schools at both primary and secondary level. She has spent many years travelling overland to far flung parts of the world. These global travels reinforced the necessity to act on ecological matters. Her spare time is now spent on Extinction Rebellion who take non-violent direct action on climate change. At present they work in the Teesside area, and Annette would like to spread this message to her locality in the Esk Valley and Mulgrave.
