4) Lynne Wilkins

I was born in Montgomery County, in the Welsh enclave of Philadelphia.  My father opened a factory in Swansea in 1956 to foster post war recovery, and I married a local man from Trap, Llandeilo 46 years ago.

I have been an Alexander Technique practitioner for 40 years, dealing with back pain and balance problems, was an Equal Opportunities Project Officer at the University of Walea, Lampeter, and an NSPCC Independent Visitor/Mentor. My principal concerns are patient outcomes of the NHS and raising qualification standards of the young.  Currently I, with other Llandybie community counsellors, address a wide variety of local concerns and issues.
