Biography

Shefali has been presenting for the 成人论坛 now for over 20 years.

After graduating in law in Birmingham and completing her professional exams in Guildford, she worked for a brief time as a trainee solicitor before deciding to follow her real passion by pursuing a career in television.

She was 'discovered' through an audition day for the 成人论坛's multicultural programmes unit and became Midlands Today's first ever weather presenter in January 1993.

Her reports have covered everything from celebrity interviews and the arts to agricultural shows, spanning the length and breadth of the Midlands and further afield - once spending a week travelling from Scotland to Portsmouth on board the nuclear submarine, HMS Coventry at the invitation of the Royal Navy.

Shefali also presents the news, and has worked on a variety of other programmes including Inside Out, the network 成人论坛 consumer programme Watchdog Daily and also Countryfile. She was one of the main presenters of Children in Need in the Midlands for more than a decade.
