How does it feel to be elected into your new role? S: It’s still sinking in, but it is a real privilege and genuine honour to be the custodian of the role. PFEW has a really good team, locally and nationally, that make things happen, similar to being back in my force and working with colleagues. I am thankful to everyone who voted for me.
T: It feels great. I have been a Fed rep since 2007, Chair of Leicestershire Branch Council and a member of the National Board, after being elected into the additional National Council seat
by the National Council in 2018. I am looking forward to working closely with a fantastic team within the Council and the Board during this triennial.
What does your new role encompass? S: There is a lot going on a lot of the time. There are many emails and a fair bit of time spent at a computer screen, but I would rather be out speaking to people
