I have spent most of my life in Norfolk and Suffolk and now Looe in Cornwall. During my 40's, I studied Politics and Sociology at Essex University. I continues to be a competitive swimmer at County, Regional and National level and have done so for 25 years.
I took up competitive swimming at 37 when my children joined our local club in Norfolk. I could swim but never belonged to a club. Got in and trained with the youngsters and after a while encouraged to compete, once I won medals I was hooked.
