What do you most enjoy about working with Waverley Care
I love that my job let’s me support young people to have their voices heard. I really believe that the only way we can effectively support young people to build healthy relationships and enjoy their sexual health safely, is to listen to their needs and work with them to provide services that are relevant and peer-led.
What do you do in your spare time?
I love going to the beach and spend as much time beside the sea as possible. I also try to get home to Cornwall as much as possible, especially when Scotland gets too cold!
Who inspires you?
Young people who are brave enough to challenge authority and fight for positive change and inclusion within their communities.
