Hailing originally from the Channel Islands, Sadie has lived the majority of her adult life in Australia, 19 years of which has been in Margaret River.

She works locally and has raised three children in the region, with one still in the school system. Sadie has actively volunteered at the schools, and various sporting associations, of which she is still currently involved.

Having been closely associated with people with varying degrees of mental health issues, and having struggled with her own health over the years, Sadie wanted to contribute some of her time to Mindful Margaret River, in order to be more actively involved in an area that does not receive enough recognition.
