Passions

Inclusion. Having deep conversations. Learning about anything. My animals. My kids and family

What others admire about me

I am a good listener and can empathise with people. I can sit in the uncomfortable spaces and hold information for people who want to give it to me. I try and remain calm and cantered and try to surround myself by wonderful people.

What is important to me

People listening to and respecting the things I do and say. Respecting people, especially those who are vulnerable or marginalised. Speaking up when I feel as though something needs to be called out

What others need to know to support me

Have a conversation with me. I love connecting with people and nourishing my friendships. I can easily feel left out or left behind. And give me information so that I can keep on learning
