Expertise
The combination of hard work, positive attitude and using varied communication skills to suit the people around means that adapting to different circumstances has never been a problem.
My father suffered from Dementia, I supported him and empathise well.
I have visited places of interest locally and connect with both the countryside & history. I am culturally aware, well travelled keen to discover more and share experiences.
My previous professional background means that I have much experience with, cooking, financial management, housekeeping and entertainment.
I have played, coached and managed football teams, I’ve been involved and enjoy various other sports., and community activities.
I have driven cars in several countries.
At college I set up my own pet caring and gardening services which I found very rewarding.
Spanish spoken as a second language.
Empathy and patience, I adapt well to different situations.
Experience
I enjoy swimming, cycling, football(Bexhill United) and watching most sports, being outdoors walking in the countryside by the sea and gardening.
I love music(particularly live), theatre and cinema. I also enjoy chess, reading non fiction, playing cards for fun, and travelling.
I am a sociable person enjoying time spent with others improves my learning and development through experiences.
I have lived and worked abroad and speak Spanish.
Through experience, I have an ability to get along with so many differing types of people. I have found this integral to working in a support environment.
Working in a person centred way maintaining integrity, dignity, respect and inclusion. I have always been involved in my community and believe this important to the people I support, inclusion is everything.

I have worked in a psychiatric hospital working for people with various mental illness.
More recently I have been working for a Charitable Trust supporting people in their homes to live independently. My job (which I continue to do part time) is to support people with complex needs and challenging behaviour, people with autism, dementia, physical and mental disabilities, to achieve their potential to live as fulfilled a life as they can.
