LET me introduce myself. My name is Ann Galbraith and I hope to be elected as a councillor for the new ward of Maybole, North Carrick and Coylton. You may not have heard much about this new ward yet …..but you will!
I am the former editor of the Ayr Advertiser and during my time with that paper I gained a reputation for telling it like it is. I wrote a weekly column – often standing up for the interests of the people of South Ayrshire – and the council were regularly in my sights. Now it is time to put my money where my mouth is.
Having just completed a book on Prestwick Airport I now have the time to devote to public service. My appetite was whetted last year when I stood in the Maybole East and North Carrick by-election losing by ONE vote. This time I hope to go one better!
I live in Crosshill with my three cats– I have been here for coming up on 16 years – but before that I lived eight years in Coylton, while my daughter was growing up – so I have a full appreciation of the interests and concerns of people who live in rural South Ayrshire. My daughter Amber is now an advocate based in Edinburgh and lives with her husband, two dogs and a cat, in Musselburgh.
