Councillor Emma Smith

Profile: 

I'm Emma and I live in Leigh on Sea, Essex with my husband and two young children. We are very lucky to love where we live and embrace the local community: the shops, the beach and the general way of life.

I’ve spent the last 17 years working in advertising & marketing in London, and recently decided to improve my work/life balance by setting up my own marketing consultancy in Leigh. I’ve always dreamed of working for myself and now I can help small local businesses develop and grow while enjoying our home town every day of the week.

I decided to put myself forward for Town Councillor as I am passionate about our area and everyone who lives in it. I have attended many community groups, classes and family events over the years and feel that more can be achieved if we work together and are as inclusive as possible.
