Anne grew up in Edinburgh and has lived in the west of the city for over 20 years, where she is now raising her young family with her husband.
She is an active member of her local school parent council and has a particular interest in education, the arts, wellbeing and the transition to a greener, fairer economy. She is a keen runner, and supports active travel for physical and mental wellbeing.
