Rhiannon Spear is a SNP Councillor at the Glasgow City Council and a Law student. On top of that she has recently been appointed the chair of the TIE campaign, an organisation campaigning for LGBT-inclusive education in Scottish Schools.
She is a passionate activist and regularly uses her position as a public political figure to speak up for those who are not heard enough. For example, she asked for more female representation at political events, opened up a discussion about miscarriage by sharing her own experience and fiercely supported the #Metoo movement by denouncing the culture of sexual harassment on campus at University of Glasgow.
