I was born and educated in Edinburgh, though I spent time as a child abroad, in Nigeria and Malaysia, as my father worked for various health departments in these countries. I have spent most of my working life as a teacher, with a short spell lecturing on Art and History for Edinburgh University's extra-mural department, and breaks to be a full-time mother. I have been interested in environmental issues and planning for a while, and would consider myself committed to campaigning on environmental protection and climate change. Since retiring I have been keen to spend more time on these issues, and also to participate in local community initiatives. |

I was born, and grew up, in rural Lanarkshire as part of a close-knit community. In 1981 I moved to Edinburgh to be part of another community, albeit larger, where I worked in various sectors of the housing industry across the Central Belt and the Borders. My work gave me a broad overview of the effects that housing and community have on each other and the importance of achieving social responsibility and quality of life within a community. Since moving to Edinburgh I have had close links to Juniper Green, and moved here from Colinton in 2017. I feel fortunate to live in and to enjoy an area where the residents take an interest in what is happening within their community and are very active in preserving the community spirit. In becoming part of the community council I want to support the interests of the community and its drive to protect the surrounding environment for the benefit of current and future generations.

A Juniper Green resident for the last 20 years, one husband, one son, two dogs and three hens. I’m often seen walking my dogs beside the Water of Leith or on the Pentland Hills. My son was fortunate enough to grow up here enjoying a level of freedom that comes from living in a village, a community within a city.

Born and raised in Colinton, it took me 40-odd years via living in a dozen different countries to arrive in Juniper Green. After an itinerant life, Ros and I have been settling down and involving ourselves with C&B News; Pentlands Book Festival; Pentland Art Club; Balerno Music Festival and other local activities. I have been working to help build the community in Juniper Green and Baberton Mains and increase links with our neighbouring villages and beyond. |

I have lived in Juniper Green all my life so thought it about time I contributed to serving the local community by seeking to become part of the local Community Council. I've also been a committee member of the local horticultural society. Brilliant fun and lovely people! I have worked at Gorgie City Farm for 24 years; as a volunteer, on the committee and in the chair for 13 years, and as a staff member for 11 years working in the gardens and green spaces. I've got an arty degree and have also worked in the mad, fab art world. I'm interested in farming and countryside issues, enjoy gardening, cycling and walking. I sometimes play golf too. But I'm laughably, dangerously rubbish at it.
