Coventry City Councillor, representing Whoberley Ward. Labour. Married to Matt.
Bitter sweet to attend the funeral of Gillian Darby, taken too soon, just before her 65th birthday
Gillian stood out as an energetic and forward thinking young woman councillor, when she represented Whoberley Ward in the late 1990s. And she was much loved by her family and friends
RIP

Each year I attend the Vigil to Count Dead Women in the City Centre
It’s always poignant
There is a pair of shoes for each woman or girl who has died at the hands of a man in the last year. On the hour, the names of each woman and girl is read out
