Dolley is a Labour counsellor for Sheerness. As a passionate and dedicated Islander, she has a proven track record in campaigning for positive change in Sheerness and ensuring that the voices of the Sheerness community are heard at every level.

As an experienced governor and within her own family, she has personal experience of schools on the island. She has been working in the local community for many years and is involved in a number of development projects across the island.

“I am incredibly excited to be supporting EKC group on Sheppey especially with bringing forward a new secondary school in Sheerness. Working with schools in various governance roles has been a real privilege. As a family we have benefitted from going through the education process that our island relies on and our children deserve. Providing choice, quality teaching and an educational offering that works with the community are ideals that we all share and more importantly will give the voice of the child every opportunity to be heard.

I will do my best to support children and families to enjoy and celebrate their time in education and aspire to a life beyond education that realises the individual potential that each student carries with them. I will bring commitment, understanding and expectation to the role on behalf of Sheppey and our kids.“
