MEET THE TEAM: Kate Ward BUsiness and CommuniTy Engagement Officer Q. W hat does your job at the Council involve? I began in my role as the Town Council Business and Community Engagement Officer in November 2022. My role is to be a consistent point of contact between the Keynsham Business and Community Groups and the Town Council. Ultimately, I’m here to work in partnership with the Businesses and Community Groups in Keynsham to enable them to thrive and grow. Q. W hat are the most enjoyable aspects of working for the Council? I really enjoy working directly for the community where I live myself. I like that I can positively impact the people and place where I live and to hopefully make Keynsham an even better place for people to live, work and visit.
Q. Away from work what are your hobbies/ interests? I have two young daughters, Charlotte (7 years old) and Zoe (3 years old) that take up most of my and my husband James’ ‘spare’ time. I do like to spend time out in my garden, go for walks and spend time with my family and friends. I’m originally from Canada, so we also spend a lot of time going back to Nova Scotia to see my side of the family who all still live there. Q. What are your favourite aspects of Keynsham? I love the community spirit in Keynsham – people are keen to get involved in community events and day-to-day there is a real neighbourly feel even though Keynsham is such a fast-growing community.
