I've had many years working in various mental health services which have focused on supporting local communities on their road to recovery. I am committed to creating a compassionate and inclusive environment where every person feels heard, valued and empowered. I aspire to contribute to the transformative impact of mental health services, promoting resilience and facilitating positive change in the lives of those seeking support.  

Over the years, I have worked for various mental health services and provided support to those in Dudley for 19 years. I enjoy meeting those we support to make a difference and improve their outlook, no matter how small.

I have experience of working in mental health services since 2009. During that time, I have 5 years experience working with learning disabilities. I am an honest, caring person who is passionate about people’s mental health and wellbeing. I enjoy mindfulness and walking for wellbeing.

I have worked as a mental health support worker for 10 years, previous to this I have worked in other areas of support work including floating support and Learning Disabilities. I have also worked as a receptionist for 17 years at a day centre where I also supported adults with learning disabilities to develop admin skills. I am a qualified Mental Health First Aider and also hold NVQ level 3 in Health and Social Care.
