She met her husband while both were working at a local company, and they have one child who attended school locally.

In 2004, after a long career in purchasing, Claire set up a graphic design business from home.
In her spare time, she enjoys ceramics and has volunteered for various local charities and associations.
Her favorite activities include walking her dogs along Rustington beach and having a cup of tea with friends.
