About

I worked in Sussex Eye Hospital in operating theatres for 7 years and loved it the only reason I left was because I moved back to Ashtead in Surrey and the travelling became to much and I could no longer continue. I have worked within care for 16 years, which varied from care in the community, reablement with mole valley district and my current position at Dorking Hospital on a ward. I love theatre and want to get back into it, I don't feel challenged enough where I am.
