Helen has deep roots in Kingston, Richmond Twickenham SW London and Surrey, having served as the Parliamentary Spokesperson for Kingston & Surbiton for GE 2024 and grown up and lived all her life in the area.
Taking on this leadership role immersed her in the community, leading to positions as a Trustee at Kingston Charitable Foundation, a Governor at Chessington School, a mentor at Kingston University, and an active member of Kingston Chamber of Commerce, business and voluntary sectors—including running the Kingston Half Marathon! After two years volunteering in Kingston Hospital A&E, she was recently elected to the Board of Governors.
Since the election, Helen has worked in Westminster in the House of Lords alongside Baroness Vere, scrutinising key Treasury policies. Helen is also the London Ambassador for Conservative Policy Forum and Dep Chair for CWO London.
A former sales and marketing director with an MBA, she has also campaigned extensively on youth, employment, education, and community issues. Coming from a family in the hospitality sector, she understands the pressures facing pubs, restaurants and the high street.
When not out campaigning, she enjoys writing, running, and walking her dogs in Richmond Park, as well as spending time with family in local pubs and restaurants. Helen has also written two books, The Pond and The Bridge.
