She is the current minister for Sport, Tourism and Equalities. In her constituency election, she even won a grander decisive majority, than her showing in 2010. She polled 22,745 votes, representing 45.5 per cent of the votes cast. Her Liberal Democrat rival, got 12,036 votes.The candidate of UKIP, Eddie Powell, that polls said was capable of creating an upset, got 7,930 votes.
Grant undertook her articles of clerkship at Cartmell, Mawson & Main solicitors in Carlisle, where she qualified as a solicitor. She then joined a legal practice in Wimbledon specialising in family law. She established her own practice, Grants Solicitors, in 1996, which also specialises in family law.
At school she was captain of the school tennis and hockey teams, and represented Cumbria in hockey, tennis, athletics, and cross-country. She was also an under-16 judo champion for the north of England and southern Scotland. She studied law at the University of Hull, after which she planned to take specialist legal qualifications. When it appeared unlikely that her local education authority would fund a place at her preferred college, her local MP Willie Whitelaw championed her cause, and she took a place at the College of Law in Guildford.
Congratulations.
