Dr Kate Crossland is an NHS doctor who has also been a community and environmental activist for the last 10 years.

Full statement

She believes in bringing communities together for the benefit of all. Kate has lived in Ealing for 20 years, and is chair of her local residents association, as well as a school governor. She also co-leads the Palliative Care Sustainability Network, exploring ways to provide high quality end of life care with the lowest possible impact on the planet. Her professional experience in casework and her background in health bring many transferrable skills to political life, particularly the ability to resolve complex problems and to communicate clearly and with compassion. When not keeping busy with all of the above, Kate enjoys spending time with her family, working through the stresses of life in the gym, and indulging her naughty rescue cats.
