A day in the life of:

Val took redundancy from her job as an IT manager two and a half years ago. She meant to look for another job after a few months, but never quite got round to it!

These days, there isn't a typical day in Val's life, largely due to the fact that neither Val or her husband Ken are constrained by work commitments. This has enabled them to do the travelling they wished they had done when they were young and fit! Having decided to swap houses with other like-minded people, they have visited California, Australia and New Zealand in the last year.

When not travelling, Val's day starts with either a swim, a keep fit class or walking netball. Val also spends free time painting, mostly from commissions received. Val enjoys gardening and cooking too. Siren Sisters has been a big part of Val's life, enjoying both the singing and friendships made.

Became a Siren Sister:

Val is one of the founder members of the Siren Sisters initiated in 2007.
