Having been brought up in rural Ireland, my upbringing instilled a love of nature and the outdoors. I moved to the UK in 2012 and, after several years of city living and enjoying urban nature, moved to Yatton in 2022. This move reignited my appreciation for the countryside and the vital need to protect and safeguard it, along with the wildlife, for generations to come. Motivated by these values, I joined YACWAG recognising the incredible work they do within the local community and the opportunity it provides to expand my knowledge of nature and the environment. Having previously worked in banking, I am now a self-employed marketer working with SMEs including heritage and environmental businesses. I aspire to utilise these skills to amplify YACWAG’s brand awareness and foster greater member engagement.
