Bexley has been her home town now for the past 43 years and she has two daughters living locally. It is important to Christine to continue to ensure Bexley remains a safe place to live with good schools and opportunities, particularly as her grandchildren attend local schools and nursery.

Representing Crayford Ward has given Christine the opportunity to get involved in local issues and she is passionate about helping vulnerable people, social care and education. She has in the past worked in health and social care and is currently involved in running a local animal charity.

Christine also believes in youth organisations and has been actively involved the Girl Guides Association for 22 years, running the 1st Welling Brownies.
