What is your favourite holiday destination? 

So far I’d say the First World War Battlefields is my favourite destination – even if I did get left behind at the Thiepval! 

If stranded on a desert island what would be your luxury? 

A pen and notepad

Who do you most admire?
Martin Luther King - I love his "I have a Dream speech" and, yes, I absolutely would have been a suffragette if I was around at the time!

How do you relax and unwind?
Some good music and a G&T

What is your greatest achievement?
My year as President of Ticked Pink society at Uni, becoming President - raising £5000 in the process winning Personality of the Year and Most Active Society of the Year! 

What really annoys you? 

Untidy people and lateness

What is your guilty pleasure? 

Stationery
