I moved to Wales in 2000 to a small village just outside Port Talbot called Tonmawr. When I became a mum I often visited Margam Park with my 3 daughters, there was always something to see and do and it's a wonderful way to get outside and enjoy some green space. As a keen photographer I started coming along to the fortnightly photography walks with my pals Karen and Alex, and began helping out with the organising and planning the walks. I then decided to join and become a Friend of Margam Park. I love helping out at events and volunteering as much as my time allows (and I get to wear a high vis - worth it for that!)
I work full time for the HM Land Registry as a User Researcher; and although my 3 daughters are all teenagers (or nearly a teenagers) they still keep me busy. But I get involved in as much as I can in the park and fit in my duties as a Trustee - looking after the website and helping with marketing materials and comms - around my work/home life.
