Kate Haywood

I’m Kate Haywood, born and raised in Newport and now living in the lively Stow Hill area. My two children go to local schools, which means I am involved in all kinds of groups and clubs across the city.

As Operations Lead, I help our delivery and support teams work more effectively and as one cohesive unit. I also teach Youth Work and Youth Justice at the University of South Wales campus in the city centre, guiding future changemakers in their journey.

I have been a volunteer at Community House in Maindee since the late 1990s and continue to support local causes through Newport-based charities including Urban Circle and the Newport Yemeni Community Association. For me, Newport’s strength lies in its people, and I love playing a part in connecting and supporting our community.
