Heather Bodden’s life is characterised by service and dedication to community and country. Born to Mary Bodden and the late Jay Bodden in George Town and raised in the Savannah/Newlands area, Heather – affectionately known as YaYa – has committed her life to helping others and working (sometimes fighting) for the betterment of all residents in her district.
An activist and organiser, Heather has been called the ‘face, heart and soul’ of the Savannah and Newlands communities. She also served as a Bodden Town Member of the Legislative Assembly from 1995 until 2000. During her tenure in Government, she brought the motions for establishing handicap parking and creating a safe house for battered and abused women and children island wide, which is known today as the Crisis Centre. She also worked to strengthen the litter laws and contributed to many other important initiatives.
Although she is not motivated by applause or accolades, the government and the people of the Cayman Islands have recognised Heather over the years for her selfless acts of love, kindness and service and rewarded her tireless efforts. In 2006 she was awarded the Certificate of Honour by H.M. Queen Elizabeth II. Most recently, she was awarded the Order of the Cayman Islands insignia at the 2021 National Heroes Day celebration for her devotion to sustained and selfless voluntary service within the community. Her projects, committees, roles and initiatives are numerous and can be found on the website www.vote4community.ky.
