In 1957 she commenced her teaching career in Kent, developed it when she moved to Hampshire in 1958, and retired from it in 1972. Her retirement was busy. She looked after her grandchildren, worked as a Meals-on-Wheels co-ordinator with the WRVS, and further developed her interest in sewing by becoming an expert in quilting, winning various prizes for her hand sewn quilts.
