Hi everyone,
I thought I'd share my intro with you all. I'm proud to be a Christchurch 2021
Community Board candidate for the Shirley/Papanui ward.
I'm married to Paul and we have three gorgeous daughters - Stephanie (11),
Holly (8) and Emma (nearly 6). We also have Fred a lovely Jack Russell who
would even welcome a burglar with a wag of his tail - he's a useless watch dog
and we also have Kodi our cat.
But enough of the personal stuff. This is my second go for the Shirley/Papanui
Community Board. I've had over 22 years' of community service which includes
the Shirley/St Albans Plunket branch, Council of Social Services, and
Volunteering Canterbury. I've also served in various capacities for some
disability organisations. I'm presently chairing Elmwood School's 125th
jubilee I would love to hear from former pupils and staff from this school) and
am a member of the Shirley Resident's Assn and the National Council of Women.
I believe that we need good public transport systems, more cycleways, better
street lighting, access for all in terms of facilities. public buildings and
housing, and an equiable sharing of resources and money throughout the entire
ward of Shirley/Papanui.
Please feel free to contact me at <email obscured> or you can look at
www.2021.org.nz. I also enjoy watching Mike Yardley's show as it's a great way
to find out what the real hard issues are, the only thing is the show's not
quite long enough!
Cheers to everyone
