[3] She has been a member of the South Cambridgeshire District Council for Histon and Impington since 2018 and chairs the council's Climate Change and Environment Advisory Committee. [4]

Early life

There were six candidates and a turnout of 71%. [6] Following the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the constituency's boundaries had changed, so that the 2024 seat was made up of parts of the previous South Cambridgeshire constituency (67.4% by area and 72.2% by population of the new seat), South East Cambridgeshire (31.9% by area and 18.8% by population) and Cambridge (0.7% by area and 9.0% by population). [7] The notional 2019 result for the new seat was a narrow Conservative win over Liberal Democrat (43.5% to 41.0%), [8] and Heylings's result in the new seat was described as a Liberal Democrat gain from the Conservatives. [6]
