First-person piece by Cllr Andree Frieze (Ham, Petersham and Richmond Riverside, Green Party) on loss in lockdown.
Many's the time in the last few years I've wished that I could stop the world, step off for a breather and return revitalised. The beginning of 2020 was no exception. As well as being as Councillor for Ham, Petersham and Richmond Riverside, I was working part-time for the Green Assembly Members at City Hall and standing as the South West London candidate in the London Assembly elections, while continuing with my usual community activities of being a governor for Meadlands School, volunteering with the Ham & Petersham SOS and sitting on various local committees. Plus, I'm a mum to two teenagers, with a husband and a home to manage. I was busy fulfilling the 21st century mantra of being busy, busy, busy.
