Councillor Kaushika Amin

I have lived in Haringey for around 20 years. My twin daughters attended local primary and secondary schools, and are involved with community activities. Prior to that I lived in Leicester where I still have a very large extended family.  I was born in Kenya and moved to the UK when I was about 10 years old.

My social interests include going to the cinema, reading novels (thrillers and biographies in particular), theatre, walking and listening to a variety of music.

I feel I can make a positive contribution to Northumberland Park not only to the ward but also to individual families.

I am particularly interested in issues around mental health, the welfare of children and families, regeneration, improving opportunities for young people and older people who have already contributed a great deal to our community.
