Hi, my name is Katie. I have lived in the area for 11 years. I have 2 children. My youngest child currently attends Banwell Buddies and loves spending time there with both the staff and the other children.

I have volunteered for many years in different roles and felt that this opportunity to be chair within Banwell Buddies would be an excellent opportunity to get to know more people but also to help to support a nursery that my daughter loves and is a big part of the local community. 

In my spare time I love to go to dance classes at the gym, spend time outdoors, go to see live music with my friends and generally enjoy spending time with others as this is something that makes me happy. In my work life I have many years experience of working with children and adults with a range of complex needs including Learning Disabilities, Autism and ADHD.
