Early life and career
A daughter of Donald Leonard Beaton, Trevelyan was educated at St Paul's Girls' School, Hammersmith. She is a former Governor of Northumbria Healthcare Trust and of Berwick Academy. She qualified as a chartered accountant with Price WaterhouseCoopers in London and worked in PwC’s corporate finance department before moving to Northumberland in 1996.
Trevelyan stood in the 2010 general election as the Conservative candidate for Berwick upon Tweed, achieving a swing from the Liberal Democrats to Conservatives of 8.3%. In so doing, she reduced Sir Alan Beith’s majority from 8,632 to 2,690.
Reports prepared by Trevelyan's "Dual the A1 Campaign" contributed to the consultation to make the road a dual carriageway.
Parliamentary career
At the general election of May 2015, Trevelyan was elected as the MP for Berwick upon Tweed, gaining the seat for the Conservatives. In June, she joined the Conservatives for Britain group, a Eurosceptic group which has since moved closer to outright opposition to British membership of the European Union. Trevelyan supported Brexit in the 2016 EU membership referendum.
Following her election to the House of Commons, Trevelyan was appointed Vice-Chairman of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Forestry, before being elected, unopposed (as an FCA), to the Public Accounts Select Committee in June 2015. In November 2015, she was appointed to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe.
