I have lived in Moretonhampstead for the past 35 years, and been a Trustee for the last 25. I have had a career in and around education, having started as a school teacher in a multi-cultural London comprehensive in the 70’s. Since then I have worked in community and further education, teaching basic maths and running courses for those who under-achieve in the academic system. In Devon I worked as an Adviser for the County Council, ran the career guidance service for adults, and then as a freelance careers adviser and training organiser.

Being involved with MDT has been the most rewarding period of my life – just to be able to see things happen under your very eyes!
