Summary

Having been interested in politics for as long as I can remember I approached the local Conservative Association to see what opportunities would be open to me.

I arranged a meeting with an officer of the association and began volunteering, they quickly offered me more opportunities leading to me becoming a member of the executive.

I have therefore been an active part of campaign and strategy meetings and the running of campaigns, organising sessions, volunteers, leaflet/manifesto writing, social media and candidate selections.


I am currently engaged in work experience for the archives at Lancashire County Council.

I have done digitalisation of Historic media, Assisted in the arrangement of the Archives, indexing Historic documents from across Lancashire and have provided tours of the Archive exhibitions. I have organised Social media campaigns to engage all areas of the public to become involved in the Archives undertakings.


I have an interest in wargaming and as such was approached by a local company to assist at events and with customer services. As such I have helped with the organisation running and setup of events for Zinge Industries. I have helped with sales, marketing and customer queries. Outside of events I have handled emails etc. And distribution.
