About Me
I have worked in the careers sector for the last 23 years, in the main supporting young people with regards to careers information, advice and guidance. I have worked in both mainstream and special schools as well as with those who are post 16 and not in education, employment or training. I have often worked with young people who have multiple barriers to learning including those in the youth justice system, young people with mental health issues and young parents. I have delivered on both statutory and traded service contracts in a wide range of settings on both a one to one and a group basis. I have a great deal of experience in liaising with various agencies including schools, colleges, training providers and support services.
I am currently work for the New Directions service in Blackburn with Darwen, where we provide a service for 13 - 19 year olds, delivering statutory and traded careers guidance both in education and out in the community.
