In January 2020, Sue joined the Midlands Regional Residents Panel as a resident member and just recently was elected by fellow resident members as Chair of the panel.

Sue helps everyone at the scheme where she lives, nothing is too much trouble, for example; taking residents shopping, collecting shopping for those who are not able, picking up prescriptions, supporting residents to GP appointments. Sue will put on events at the scheme for all the residents, she is very welcoming and very much encourages inclusion. When a new resident moves in, Sue will support them settling in.

Sue does a lot in the beautiful gardens which are award winning and very often pays for plants etc out of her own monies to enhance the look of the grounds.
