Alison Huckvale
Alison Huckvale is an avid Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur football supporter, depending on which team is doing well! She has recently hung up her own football boots after many years of coaching and managing football at grassroots. This is Alison’s second publication, her first being The Tortoise of Hope. She is thirty years happily married to David with two independent daughters, Olivia and Holly-Mae. To complete the family are Bella and Koko—two adorable Schnoodles.
Alison enjoys art, painting and exploring different mediums, along with her more recent hobbies—crocheting and playing the ukulele—but not at the same time! She is the proud owner of 28 implants, having braved the option to fill her mouth with healthier teeth, but more importantly, to allow her to smile for the first time in fifty years.
