My family and I moved to Peterborough from London five years ago and I am currently a stay at home mum with two adorable (well most of the time) children, one of whom is in Key Stage 1 at Old Fletton Primary, the other whom will be starting school soon. I’m a volunteer at the British Heart Foundation in my spare time and I speak fluent Gujarati.

Before taking a break to have my children, I worked in the charity sector (Royal National Institute of the Blind) for ten years, seven of which were within the business process improvement area, where some of my responsibilities included measuring and monitoring activities with a view to continuous improvement of the service and business. As a new Parent Governor I hope to bring these skills to the school and being a sincere advocate of community spirit I’m really looking forward to sinking my teeth into this role.
