She attended drama school in the 1950s (?), here she is looking stunningly glamorous in a headshot.

In 1966 she qualified as a physiotherapist, having studied in Bradford.

Here she is (far left second row from bottom of picture) winning prizes with some of her fellow students.

Shortly after, she moved to London to begin practising physiotherapy. Here she is in the Christmas show for the staff party at Camden Road Mediad rehab centre in the late 1960s / early 1970s.

It was in London that she met Peter Powell, who she married in 1971 and with whom she had daughters Imogen and Cordelia. Here they are on their wedding day in January 1971.

In 1974 Judith gave birth to her first daughter Imogen Charlotte Lucy Powell on the 8th May.

In 1977 Cordelia Vanessa Cariad Powell was born, completing their family!

On 17th November 2018, Judith became a grandmother when Cordelia gave birth to Frank.
