I have lived on a narrowboat in the West Midlands for 10 years along with my husband – Tim and 4 legged – Marley. I have an adult son – M-A.

Due to my father being in the armed forces, I moved around a lot as a child and that is where I learned to be able to make friends easily – which in adult life means I can talk to pretty much everyone!

All of my working life I have worked in offices and have a particular like of administration. I like working in the background, ensuring that the little things are sorted so that the rest of the organisation can get on with their roles. But, if needed, I will step forward and help where necessary.

I have one of the unseen disabilities, having battled with depression and anxiety for over 20 years. When people meet me they simply have no idea because I am bright and bubbly and have spent years hiding behind a wall – my way of coping with it!
