Janet - a retired businesswoman who has lived in Broadbottom for 15 years - has always been an active member of the community. And she hopes to be able to make a real difference in Longdendale as a local councillor.
On Saturday she launched her campaign at an event at the community centre, in Broadbottom. And among the 50 activists supporting her were Stalybridge and Hyde MP Jonathan Reynolds and Tameside Council leader Cllr Kieran Quinn.
Commenting on her campaign to be elected as councillor, Janet said: "Our schools, our hospitals and our jobs are all at risk, because of the savage cuts that are planned by the Conservative government.
"As your local councillor I would fight to protect all our services and make sure you have a strpng voice.
"Longdendale is a great place to live. Together we can make it even better."
following the event dozens of supporters canvassed support around Broadbottom, where Janet is already a well-known face.
In the past Janet has supported a number of groups and local initiatives. She is currently President of the Longdendale Women's Institute, a pensioner advocate and a member of the Community Chest panel.
