As a mixed-race child, it was tough growing up in 1980s Britain. I was determined to go to university and find a good job, but I only succeeded because my family, my friends and others in my local community believed in me, advocated for me, and heard me.

I believe that it is my responsibility to give the same support to others. That is why over the past twenty years I have dedicated as much time as possible to organising local campaigns and leading national policy development projects with other trade union, Labour and community volunteers.

Our communities, our businesses and our families are desperate for a better Government. As we gear up for a general election, I am determined to use my professional legal skills and twenty years’ experience in business to making a major contribution to bringing about this change.
