Emma Morse: Your Labour Candidate Devon County Council Elections 2013
Emma Morse is 34 years old and lives in Beacon Heath with her husband and two young sons. Emma has lived in Beacon Heath for most of her life and attended Beacon Heath Primary School, Summerway Middle School and St James High School.
Her eldest son attends Willowbrook School and she helps to run Pinhoe, Parent, Toddler and Baby Group. She also is a member of the organisational committee for Pinhoe’s America Hall.
Emma said, “Pinhoe and Mincinglake are my local communities. I have watched Saxon Spence do an excellent job of representing them over the years and am honoured that I now have the opportunity to continue her excellent work – I am thrilled that she is offering me her full support”.
“There are many issues that concern the people of Pinhoe and Mincinglake including transport and roads, development in and around the ward, youth engagement and diminishing funding in social services. Should I be elected I am looking forward to engaging with the local people and community groups to champion local concerns”.
