Kate Brooks

Fishponds local Kate Brooks is the creator and host of events and walks for The People’s University of Fishponds and creator of the mug and tote bag 'Fishponds...it's quite nice.' As well as being a very proactive member of the local community, she works as an Associate Lecturer in Education History and Heritage at Bath Spa University. She's a regular contributor to social history projects.

She is also part of the organising team for Fishfest, which used to happen in the grounds of Fishponds Academy along Fishponds Rd, and one year had to refund someone their £1 entrance fee as there wasn’t any fish.
