ANN Purt stands in the Clarkson Ward in the Fenland District Council elections

Ann is a former Wisbech town councillor and Mayor of Wisbech.

She is a freelance florist and previously taught floristry at the local horticultural college. She is also an examiner and external verifier for City & Guilds.

She has in the past served as a non-executive director of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital NHS Trust and because of this she is deeply concerned with the proposed changes to future NHS provision.

Having spent most of her working life in education she continues to have an interest in the education of our young children and is currently a governor at Orchards and Nene Schools.

Ann said: “If the voice of Wisbech is to be heard at Fenland then it is vital that we have as many Labour councillors as possible

“I would urge you all to use your vote to support those who have the will to make things happen - the Labour candidates.”
