Currently I am the CEO of Sefton Carers Centre which is a registered charity providing a range of free support, advice, guidance and carers assessments to over 11,000 unpaid carers from the age of 5. I have worked in a range of voluntary sector organisation for over 20 years developing new services and projects across different sectors of social care and health.

Previously, I was a senior project consultant and underwriter for a large international insurance company and one of my areas of underwriting was twins’ insurance which always felt more like a gamble than insurance.

I was born and live in Sefton, married, and have a daughter at university. I have a love for horses, and I am lucky to have my own, although my daughter is more expensive than any horse !
