I am seeking election to the Birkenhead Licensing Trust to serve our community with integrity, inclusivity, and local insight. With a background in sport administration, events, and community programmes, I bring practical experience in delivering initiatives that create meaningful impact. Having grown up in Birkenhead and now living in Beach Haven, I’m passionate about ensuring equitable access to active recreation and local opportunities for all – across every part of our vibrant community. I bring leadership experience in operations and logistics, alongside a proven track record delivering community-focused outcomes. I believe the Trust’s resources should be used transparently and strategically to boost opportunities for all local groups, especially in sport, youth, arts, and culture. If elected, I will ensure grant allocations reflect diverse needs across Birkdale, Beach Haven, Birkenhead, Glenfield, and Northcote. My passion is building vibrant, connected communities where every woman, child, and whānau thrives.
