Since 2009 I have worked for Brathay Trust, initially as Senior Youth Worker and for the last 5 years I have been the Cumbria Projects Manager, where I've had the opportunity and privilege to create, develop and manage some of the most impactful and rewarding programmes for disadvantaged young people; including New Beginnings, a 3 year project to support young people who were preparing to, or who had left care.
