Isabel Cooke

Isabel is 68 years young and has lived in Huntingdonshire since she was 8 years old attending Slepe Hall School until its closure. Happily married for many years to a local man who recently passed away, Isabel is also mother to three children. She has always enjoyed writing poetry and is currently writing a book. Writing gives Isabel the freedom to express her vivid imagination and life through her eyes. In her younger years Isabel had two poems published but could not pursue her hobby due to being a full-time mum, working part time at Hartford Infant School and caring for elderly neighbours.   Age wisdom coupled with a life changing disability enables her to see things with fresh eyes. Isabel now has time to give her creative writing time to grow and flourish which she shares with family, friends and carers.
