When did you first attend the SODEM protest outside Parliament and why did you come? 

October 2019. There was a request for people to come early in the morning, so I got a very early train and got there by 7.15 am.

Roughly how old are you?

80

How frequently did you come and when was the last time you attended?

Only once

How far from Westminster do you live and what was your travelling time?

64 miles, started at 4.40 am.

What’s your favourite memory?

The warm welcome from everyone there, and meeting Steve.

Tell me your story

I joined the Canterbury for Europe group in spring 2017 and went on the march on June 23rd. I was so convinced that our country should remain a member of the EU that I believed we could convince the government of that fact. I had never been on a protest march before in my life, and I was nearly 77 then.
