Kirsty Roberta Allan

Kirsty has worked for two prominent Liberal Democrats, Lynne Featherstone and Norman Lamb. Having seen the difficulties faced by many constituents on a daily basis, Kirsty was motivated to become a candidate in order to stand up for people’s rights, particularly those of under-represented women. After working in retail and design for three years, Kirsty attended the University of London, Royal Holloway where she gained a BA (Hons) and MA in History. As a former mature student, she is passionate about making sure everyone can afford to have access to education. Kirsty further developed her interest in politics and liberalism at university and became an active member of the Liberal Democrats after starting to work for Lynne. Kirsty is a strong advocate for penal reform and women’s rights, and works to promote access to politics for people from all walks of life.
