This website will be used to keep you informed of the work I do and problems that are being aired to me via this site or in the course of my work. I was elected to Derry City Council in 1985 and have represented the Shantallow area since then. I am extremely proud to have topped the poll at all but one (my first in 1985) of my elections to Local Government. I have lived in Carnhill with my husband and daughter since 1971. I was proud to represent this City as deputy mayor and mayor from 1990-1992. I hold the party spokespersonship for the OFMDFM (the office of first and deputy first minister) in my capacity as an MLA.
In the area of Shantallow the main issues are housing, welfare rights and planning, together with the very worrying issue of anti-social behaviour.
I will be adding any local news and notices to this website for your information and you can also send items or photos of any local interest or areas that you consider as needing attention to my email address and I will address them and/or include them, (with your permission) in this website.
If you feel there are issues that you would like me to deal with please let me know via this website or on any of my contact numbers listed.

“I also encourage older people to increase safety in their homes by availing of home safety schemes provided by Local Safety Partnerships to include the installation of door locks, window locks and panic buttons.
