Mencap's key values of being passionate, inclusive, brave, positive, and kind align with my personal values and have brought out my passion for caring and supporting Service Users. My 16 years of experience at Mencap has enabled me to become a natural leader and I enjoy mentoring and inspiring other team members, ensuring that Service Users have an exceptional person-centred care experience. I approach my role with a positive and kind attitude and feel empowered to speak up when necessary to advocate for the Service Users.

I work hard and think ahead to fill each day with meaningful activities for Service Users. I am a strong leader and naturally prioritise my workload. My passion for Mencap has driven me to consistently empower the team and Service Users to be kind to everyone, and brave enough to speak up.

I am passionate about being a role model and mentor to other team members and continuing to inspire all the team to work to Mencap's policies and procedures.
